of Hatra, 350 km north of Baghdad December 6,2002. Many Iraqis visit
the site on the second day of the Moslem Eid al-Fitr, which marks the
end of the holy fasting month of Ramadan but the number of foreign
tourists has dwindled in the past decade as the country reels under
harsh U.N. sanctions which bar most direct flights. REUTERS/Suhaib
