business travellers flock to the location. As a result, the city is becoming
more populated with furnished apartments to keep up with this demand. For those

If you have
a choice when to visit Erbil on business, spring or autumn are the best times
to travel. The weather
varies throughout the year and whilst the summers are hot, the winter sees
surprisingly cold temperatures. We recommend researching this when you have
finalised the time during the year that you will be travelling so appropriate
clothes can be packed for your trip. Surprisingly, the city also boasts some of
the best nightlife
in the Middle East which is often comparable to Beirut.
For a drink with a colleague or client after work, you will be able to find
many bars that will accommodate you. Although some speak English, a bit of
prior research will be necessary to overcome the language barrier you may face.
If you want to impress whilst away, Kurdish
is the main language spoken, so brushing up on a few phrases
wouldn’t go amiss.
The easiest
and most comfortable form of transport for tourists is taxi,
with trips by car being favorable to many. Buses
are also an option, however, aren’t used as widely. For some areas, such as New Hawler,
they can be the preferable mode of transport for those looking to not break the
bank with taxi rides. Erbil has its own airport which is one of the
two key airports within Iraqi Kurdistan, so is an ideal location for
international travellers.
There are
many malls in Erbil, such as the Family Mall that delivers a
seamless shopping experience. With a variety of brands, a cinema and a food
court offering different cuisines for you to try, the mall is a conveniently
located and filled with activities for you to get involved in on your shopping
day. Alternatively, the Bazaar
is another credited option and popular for those looking for a mixture of shops
offering a variety of goods; you are almost guaranteed to find what you are looking
for.
A location
rife with history, Erbil is one of the oldest cities in the world, dating back
to at least 6000 BC which has played a significant role in 21st
century history. The beauty of Erbil is that it has managed to keep up with
modern advancements as it has become known for its contemporary malls, yet
still stays true to its past with its ancient sites
where you can transport back to its roots. Listed as a UNESCO heritage site
back in 2014, the Erbil Citadel
definitely warrants a visit for you to wander the remains of the ancient city
and catch a beautiful sunset.
During the
day, a visit to Erbil Main Square
is ideal, with many cafes available for you to get your coffee fix or find a
table for an alternative setting to complete some work tasks. Alongside ancient
ruins, this city has modern day architectural wonders. A visit to the Jalil Khayat Mosque
is a necessity for your trip; the ornately decorated beauty is a sight to
behold. Finally, to stretch your legs after a long day at work, Erbil is home
to many parks for you to enjoy. From Sami Abdul Rahman Park
to Minaret Park
and Shanidar Park,
there are many different green spaces for you to utilise whilst away on
business in Erbil.
