These are the pictures of my recent trip to Afghanistan’s ancient city of Herat. Herat is a beautiful city, and in every place and corner you go, you see history. It is the city of Shah Abbas the Great, Jami, Ansari, Kamaludin Behzad and Goharshad. The people are friendly and kind. I have to say I was moved by their hospitality. While all you might hear about Afghanistan is war and destruction, I wanted to share with you these photos to see that there is still life and beauty in this ancient land. 123 next › last »
