Travel guide
Understand
Fallujah is called the City of Mosques where there are more than 200 mosques found in the city. It is also the location of the ancient city of Pumbedita, known for its large Jewish Talmudic academy.
The city was heavily bombed in 2004, after the US invasion, as the US troops failed to build confidence with the locals. Unrest continued, and when ISIL invaded the area, it had not been under effective control of the Iraqi government. In the 2015–2016 fightings, ISIL was forced out.
Get in
National operator Iraqi Republic Railways runs a twice daily train between Ramadi and from Baghdad via Fallujah. Journey time from Baghdad is just over one hour.

Article · Português
Faluja (em árabe: الفلوجة; por vezes transliterada como Falluja, Fallujah, Fallouja ou Falowja; em hebraico: פומבדיתא; aramaico: Pumbedit(h)a) é uma cidade do Iraque, localizada na província de Ambar, a cerca de 69 quilômetros a oeste de Bagdá, às margens do Eufrates. Faluja data do período babilônico, e foi sede de diversas academias judaicas por diversos séculos. Durante o período moderno a cidade cresceu de uma pequena vila, em 1947, até uma população de cerca de 425 774 habitantes em 2003, antes da invasão americana. A cidade é conhecida, dentro do próprio Iraque, como a "cidade das mesquitas", devido às mais de 200 mesquitas encontradas nas cidades e vilas vizinhas. Os combates ferozes travados na cidade (o primeiro em abril e o segundo em novembro de 2004) durante a Guerra do Iraque, no entanto, teriam danificado boa parte delas.
