The Tahrir Monument in Baghdad stands tall as a symbol of resilience and freedom. Its modern design and significance make it a powerful landmark, embodying the spirit of progress and unity in Iraq's capital. A testament to a brighter future!

I love the update they have made, this monument has been a great inspiration

Very beautiful place specially after the renovation

Freedom Monument (or Nasb al-Hurriyah) is located in Tahrir Square (Liberation Square) in the centre of Baghdad, is the city's most well-known and well-loved monument. It depicts historic Iraqi events up to the 14 July Revolution led by Abdul Karim Qasim; a key date which marks the beginning of Republican rule in Iraq. The monument is intended to be read as a verse of Arabic poetry - from right to left - beginning with events that preceded the revolution - and concluding with harmony following independence. The multiple references and hidden layers of meaning in the work inspired Arab artists across the region and encouraged them to pursue artwork with a national identity at a time when many Arab nations were attaining independence.

Not bad 😌 Wheelchair ♿ 👩‍🦼 👨‍🦽 entrance is available

Known as Tahrir Square locally, the square consists of open public spaces with the Ummah Garden, situated behind the square. If you are close to this area then just just give a short visit to this monument that was put after Royal family were murdered in 1958 in a coup. The only thing in baghdad to have a picture of it and visit it.
