Ishtar Gate<span> was constructed by the Babylonian King </span>Nebuchadnezzar II<span> circa 575 BCE. It was the eighth gate of the </span>city<span> of </span>Babylon <span>and was the main entrance into the city. The </span>Ishtar<span> Gate was part of Nebuchadnezzar's plan to beautify his </span>empire<span>'s capital. During the first half of the 6th century BCE, he also restored the </span>temple<span> of </span>Marduk<span> and built the renowned wonder: the Hanging Gardens as part of this plan. The magnificence of the Ishtar Gate was so well known that it made the initial list of </span>the Seven Wonders<span> of the Ancient World. However, it was later replaced by the Lighthouse of </span>Alexandria, but some authors <span>wrote that the "Gates of Ishtar" and "Walls of Babylon" should still be considered one of the wonders.</span>
