Karrada (Arabic: كرّادة‎ Karrāda) is an upper middle class district of the city of Baghdad, Iraq. It has a mixed population Muslims andChristian. It is one of the most religiously diverse areas of the city, and is one of the two major districts of the Christian community in Baghdad, along with Dora. All of the Christians of the district congregate in Inner Karrada, where most of the Churches are located, with congregations of Chaldeans, Assyrians, Melkite Greeks, and Armenian Catholics. It has two sub-districts, being Nazaith and Masbah. Karrada is on the northern part of the peninsula, which was created by a sharp turn in the Tigris river. As a result, the district ended up boasting lots of waterfront property, which helped turn the area into the expensive district it is today.
