The term "Garden of Eden" was the popular term used to describe the Assyrian/Babylonian Empire. In fact, Eden was a town in what's today Iraq.
The first thing people should get through their thick skulls is that the Bible is simply a collection of ethnocentric Jewish religious fairy tales that's been spun to give them special status. There's no invisible (or visible) celestial supernatural God character who has a band of winged angels. The stories are comparable to the other ancient ethnocentric myths from Egypt, Greece, Rome, India, Persia, and elsewhere. If you don't believe in those deities why do you believe in the Bible's? They are all nonsense!
