Earlier this year, Ahmad, who came to the U.S. with her family as a child, took a journey to the place of her birth. In Part 3, she tours the maze of stone hallways in the desert that comprise the ruins of the ancient city of Babylon. She also walks the marble floors of the once opulent palace of Saddam Hussein, the marks of whose reign remain ever present in the country.
