where was the garden of eden according to the bible
According to the Bible, the location of Eden is described in the Book of Genesis, chapter 2, verses 10 -- 14 as the source of four tributaries. However, the Garden of Eden is considered to be mythological by most scholars. Among those that consider it to have been real there have been various suggestions for its location: for example, at the head of the Persian Gulf, in southern Mesopotamia (now Iraq) where the Tigris and Euphrates rivers run into the sea; and in the Armenian Highlands or Armenian Plateau, among other proposed locations.
