城墙

While the most descriptive accounts of the Gardens come from Greek historians such as Berossus and Diodorus Siculus,Babylonian records stay silent on the matterTablets from the time of Nebuchadnezzar do not have a single reference to the Hanging Gardens,although descriptions of his palace, the city of Babylon, and the walls are foundEven the historians who give detailed descriptions of the Hanging Gardens never saw themModern historians argue that when Alexander's soldiers reached the fertile land of Mesopotamia and saw Babylon, they were impressedWhen they later returned to their rugged homeland, they had stories to tell about the amazing gardens and palm trees at MesopotamiaAbout the palace of Nebuchadnezzar About the Tower of Babel and the zigguratsAnd it was the imagination of poets and ancient historians that blended all these elements together to produce one of the World Wonders

虽然对花园最详尽的记述是出自Berossus 和 Diodorus Siculus等希腊历史学家笔下，但巴比伦的历史记录却对此事只字未提。尽管在尼布甲尼撒时期存留下的各种书写板上发现了对他的宫殿、巴比伦城以及巴比伦的城墙的种种描述，但这些书写板上却没有一处提到过空中花园。甚至那些对空中花园进行过详细描述的历史学家们也从没有亲眼目睹过它们。现代历史学家争论说：当亚力山大的士兵们到达了富饶的美索不达米亚地区并看到了巴比伦时，他们深为所震撼。当他们后来回到崎岖不平的家乡时，带回了有关美索不达米亚的令人惊叹的花园和椰子树……、有关尼布甲尼撒的宫殿……以及有关巴别塔和金字型神塔的各种故事。是诗人和古代历史学家的想象力把这所有的元素混合在一起制造出了世界奇观之一。
