The mysterious hanging gardens :palm_tree: :deciduous_tree:, attributed to King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon, one of the most powerful rulers of the ancient world.
but no evidence has been found if this wonder ever existed, in recent years Assyriologist Stephanie Dalley suggested that the hanging gardens existed but in Nineveh the ancient capital of Assyria.
and was King Sennacherib who built a Palace with lush terraced gardens as high as the palace walls a century earlier than Nebuchadnezzar.

Either way Babylon or Nineveh I love history and have been amazed by Mesopotamian cultures since I was a child reading about them in school.
Blender for modeling, substance painter for texturing, cycles rendering.
Thanks for looking.

Love the piece. Really gets the imagination going.

I do however think the render is a bit to sharp and it feels more digital in that way. Maybe a softer and warmer look would ease up that:
