This part of the palace includes the famous throne-room where the writing appeared on the wall during the last night of King Belshazzar’s reign. Among the other reconstructed buildings is the gateway to the temple of Ishtar. Hotels and tourist facilities have also been erected on the outskirts of the city.
Katika sehemu ya kwanza ya ujenzi wa mji huu wa zamani ni Kasr kuu la mfalme Nebukadreza. Sehemu moja ya Kasr hii ni chumba maalum ambako maandishi yalijitokeza katika ukuta siku ya mwisho ya utawala wa Belshaza. Kati ya vyumba vipya ambavyo vimejengwa ni mlango unaoingia katika hekalu la Ishtar. Hoteli na makao ya watalii yamejengwa katika vitongoji vya mji huu.
