As with many passages in Genesis, there is debate among [[Christians]] whether or not the story of the Garden of Eden should be taken literally or metaphorically. If taken literally, there is debate over its location, whether in the area of eastern Turkey/norther Iran, in southern Iraq, or elsewhere in the world.

In [[Dante]]'s [[Divine Comedy]], the Garden of Eden (or Earthly Paradise) is situated at the top of the Mountain of [[Purgatory]] in the southern hemisphere, where we now know [[Antarctica]] to be. Those who have been through Purgatory pass through the tranquil garden before they enter [[Heaven]].
