Baghdadi Heritage Museum

About this stop

The studio first opened its doors in 1970, coinciding with the inauguration of the exhibition. It is more than just a space for taking photographs; it serves as a window into Baghdad’s past, where visitors can dress in traditional Baghdadi attire and pose for pictures that capture the spirit of heritage.

The studio has been continuously run by the same family since its founding. Generations have inherited this craft with passion, preserving the art of manual photography and the pulse of memories within the studio’s walls.

The standard photo for one person costs 5,000 Iraqi dinars, with an additional 2,000 dinars if the visitor chooses to wear traditional clothing. The photographer can also take pictures anywhere inside the exhibition, not just within the studio itself adding flexibility and a personalized touch to the visitor’s experience.
