We only get to see the pictures and images of a war torn Afghanistan. I am sure there is a lot more to discover. The media only wants us to see only a certain picture of the beautiful country.. and the country side (for whatever reason). So here are a few images I found.
Great pictures, Gizzy! Love the Afghnai terrain. It's one of the most beautiful regions in the world as obvious from these pics. It's close to being heaven on earth. :)
The beautiful mosque is located in Mazar-e-Sharif or Herat.
And the green/brownish mountain range is the Hindu Kush Mountains located in North Eastern Afghanistan near Pakistan and Tajikistan border.
Also, the Panjshir Valley is located I think near or just below the Hindu Kush Mountains. This is also the birth place of the assassinated leader of the Northern Alliance(Ahmad Shah Masood) may Allah rest his soul in peace. Ameen!
