Iraqis visit Malwiya minaret, a mid-nint

Iraqis visit Malwiya minaret, a mid-ninth century structure in the restive city of Samarra, north of Baghdad, upon its official re-opening to visitors on December 11, 2009. The 50m helicoidally tower of sun-dried and baked brick, modeled on ancient ziggurats that was built to symbolise the power of Islam during the Abbasid caliphate, was closed to visitors after it was bombed in 2006.
