This video was spontaneous and unplanned.

My Afghan friend, Noor, and I were road tripping from Mazari Sharif Eastbound when we found a hitchhiker on the side of the road. We picked him up, and he invited us into his village for tea.

This is a video about the amazing hospitality in Afghanistan. I am shocked by how warm and inviting these people are!

I documented the entire experience and originally wasn't planning to upload it as a separate story, but it is too good not to share with you.

Thank you so much for watching, and for all of your comments/reactions/questions on my Afghanistan content so far. If you ask me, this is as good as it gets.

Jihad Museum of Afghanistan in Herat province

The Taliban captured Herat on 12 August 2021. This video was recorded in Taliban-controlled Afghanistan.

Jihad Museum
The Jihad Museum is located in Herat province, Afghanistan. It was built in 2010 as a place for Afghans to understand past conflicts and the history of their nation. Since its opening, the museum has welcomed many visitors, including U.S. congressmen and the deputy commander of NATO forces in Afghanistan. The museum's main purpose is to inform visitors of the mujahideen's plight and to educate Afghans. It is a memorial to the mujahideen (not Taliban) heroes who fought the Soviets in the 70s and 80s as well as to the Afghans who lost their lives fighting.
The Jihad Museum contains several exhibitions that are open continuously and showcase various topics pertaining to the mujahideen battles against the Soviets.
- Weapons: The museum exhibits Soviet weapons used during the war such as tanks, a fighter jet, a helicopter and a light rocket launcher. There is also a large collection of Russian rifles, grenades, plastic land mines, and artillery pieces on display.

Herat
The city of Herat in western Afghanistan long sat at the edge of empires and served as a hub for trade and a conduit for armies. Yet it has been much more than simply a staging post or plaything of political ambition. It has been an imperial capital, a city of extraordinary wealth, and has played host to a cultural renaissance to rival that of Florence.

Herat province
Herat Province is located in western Afghanistan on the Afghanistan - Iran border. Herat borders the desolate Afghan provinces of Farah to the south, Badghis to the north, and Ghor to the east. Herat also shares part of its northern border with Turkmenistan. Herat City is the largest and most significant urban area in western Afghanistan, home to an estimated 400,000 Heratis, and is connected to Kandahar City and Kabul via Highway 1, also referred to as the ring road highway.

The provincial population is approximately 1.8 million. Agriculture and animal husbandry are the primary occupations found in Herat although urban commercial and industrial ventures dominate Herat City's economy. Cotton, tobacco, and sesame are among the largest crops produced. Trade is intimately linked with Iran who shares a 400-mile border with Afghanistan.

Additional information on Herat province:
- Population Estimate: 1,890,000
- Area in Square Kilometers: 54,778
- Capital: Herat City

- Herat districts: Adraskan, Chest-e Sharif, Enjil, Farsi, Ghuryan, Golran, Gozareh, Herat, Karokh, Kuhestan, Kushk, Kushk-e Kohneh, Owbi, Pashtun Zarghun, Shindand, Zendeh Jan.

- Ethnic groups: Pashtun, Tajik, Hazara, Taimuri, Qala Nau, Chahar Aimak, Firozkohi, Jamshedi, Karkar, Kuchis.

- Tribal structure: Pashtun: Durrani, Zirak, Nurzai, Alizai, Panjpai, Barakzai, Alokozay, Achakzai, Ghilzai.

- Religious groups: Predominately Muslim; 15% Shia, 84% Sunni.

- Topography: Herat is bounded by the Khorasan deserts in the west, the Hindu Kush mountains in the east, and the Band-i-Baba mountains in the North. The central feature of the province, and most populous region within it, is the fertile tract that contains the districts of Heart, Ghuryan, Owbi, and Karokh. Roughly 40% of the province is either mountainous or semi-mountainous, and the remainder is flat or interspersed with gently rolling hills.

Ahmadzai new Afghan ATTAN|Aryob zazai Paktia #ګران_وطن_افغانستان #اتڼ #ATTAN#afghanistan

Attan (Pashto: اتڼ) is the national dance of Afghanistan.[1] It is a traditional dance originating from the tribal Pashtun regions of Afghanistan and North Western Pakistan.Some believe it has spiritual roots connecting it to Zoroastrianism.

The ATTAN is performed during weddings or other celebrations (engagements, weddings and informal gatherings). The Attan was also conducted by Pashtuns in times of war such as the British occupation and the Pashtun resistance movement, when Pashtuns used the dance to instil confidence and energy among warriors readying to battle the colonisers.[5] It is now considered the national dance of Afghanistan,[6] popularly carried by other ethnic groups in Afghanistan[7] as well as by the Pashtun ethnic group in Pakistan.[8]
The traditional Attan is a special type of dance performed by a troupe of Pashtun tribesmen who would wave swords by the Khattak tribe or guns by the Mehsud tribe or scarves in the air while drummers beat drums. They move around in a present circle whilst twirling aligned with the drum beat.
Depending on the region and tribe, there are different methods and styles of the Pashtun attan, for example Paktia attan and styles.
Attan is performed traditionally segregated although in modern times, Afghans have performed the dance with both men and women.

Zazi District (Pashto: ځاځي ولسوالۍ, Persian: ولسوالی جاجی), also called Jaji, Dzadzi or Aryob, is a district in Paktia Province, Afghanistan. The main town is Aryob. The district is within the heartland of the Zazi tribe of Pashtuns.

Like in the rest of Afghanistan, no exact population numbers are available. The Afghan Ministry of Rural Rehabilitation & Development (MRRD) along with UNHCR and Central Statistics Office (CSO) of Afghanistan estimated the population of Zazi district to be around 45,923 (CSO 2004).[1] According to the same sources, but according to the local tribe estimation and counting, the total population of Zazai(Pashto: ځاځي) is in two district of Ahmad Khel and Aryub 375000 in 2016 (Malak Aziz Khan from Larliwani village), Pashtuns make up 100% of the total population.

7 Days in the Most Dangerous Country in the World ????????

Afghanistan is not a country that is easily broken. No matter what death or destruction has happened in this country, life perseveres, and it's a testament to the spirit of the Afghan people. The narratives of good and evil don't always neatly fit over any country, let alone one as complex as Afghanistan.
But it’s the resilience and the warmth of the people that have left the deepest impression.
This journey has reminded me that Afghanistan is more than just headlines; it's a land of contradictions, rich history, and incredible people. It's a place where hope survives, and life goes on, no matter the odds. This country is safe to travel to if you follow the rules and have the correct guides.

Afghanistan has been plagued by decades of conflict, including the Soviet invasion in the 1980s, civil war in the 1990s, and the U.S.-led invasion in 2001. The presence of various armed groups, including the Taliban and other insurgent factions, has led to ongoing violence and instability. Join me as I visit what is considered as the most dangerous country in the world and explore the rich history, diverse culture, and breathtaking landscapes. I'll go beyond the headlines to showcase the true beauty and resilience of the Afghan people. Featuring ​⁠​⁠@BlackmanDaTraveller and ​⁠​⁠@Abzventure.

WOMEN OF AFGHANISTAN (6 inspiring stories)

► SUBSCRIBE for daily travel videos:
► INSTAGRAM for more!

When traveling around Afghanistan (and other Muslim-majority countries), I receive many comments about why no women appear in my videos.

The reason is because these societies are largely dominated by men -- and men are the ones who are commonly seen on the streets, driving cars, working in shops and eating in restaurants. For the most part, women stay at home to watch their kids, clean the house, prepare food, etc. This is how the culture has been functioning for thousands and thousands of years, especially right here in Afghanistan.

BUT, that doesn't mean that there aren't as many women as men who are doing inspiring things! In general, women are shy of the camera and they don't want to be exposed for cultural reasons, which is something that I always respect and honor. This is why I do not show many women in my videos.

However, over the last few weeks as I've traveled around Afghanistan, I've been able to sit down with 6 incredible women entrepreneurs to hear their stories. They all have amazing things to say!!

I really enjoyed making this video and I hope that you guys enjoy listening what they have to say, because as we all know, women make the world go 'round!

Things NOT TO Do in Afghanistan

Like most countries, Afghanistan has a rich culture and long-standing traditions. They are proud of their families, their heritage, and their religion, and are generally hospitable, although their country is war-stricken. All this being said, here are 8 Things NOT TO Do in Afghanistan!

1. Don't Wear Revealing Clothes
You probably think I'm going to say women should cover themselves up, but no! Men must be covered too! Even in summer, a man must not wear shorts, even knee-length ones, and should not wear sleeveless t-shirts either!

2. Avoid Sickness
The Afghan health service is a cash-based system and very bad quality, locals travel elsewhere. Bring any medicine you may need, with you. avoid street foods. and drink only bottled water

3. Avoid common errors
Afghanistan is not part of the middle east, It is part of South Central Asia. The People of Afghanistan are not Arabs, they are a diverse nation including Hazaras, Pashtuns, Tajiks, and Uzbeks among others, and they are all called Afghans, Afghani is their currency.

4. Don't use Extra-Urban Buses
Buses travel to all the provinces but the longer the journey, the more dangerous it is. If the bus gets stopped at a Taliban checkpoint, you'll be asked for identification, they'll see you are foreign and you'll be kidnapped.

5. Greetings
While it is polite for a man to stand up and greet an Afghan man with a handshake (always the right hand) it is not normal for members of opposing sex to do so, even among families. Opposing sexes should put their right hand to their heart and say As-Salaam-Alaikum

6. Don't buy electronics
While it may be tempting when you see how cheap a new cellphone is, It's not worth the hassle. Counterfeit electronics are common in Afghanistan and it's not uncommon, for a new electronic device, inside a sealed packet to be damaged, used, or broken.

7. Don't forget to barter
Afghans shopkeepers can see that you're foreign from a mile away, and the closer you get to their store, the higher their prices go. Don't be embarrassed to barter, just think of it like the shop keeper is trying to overcharge you because you're foreign, and bear in mind that no matter how far you knock the price down, he'll come out winning!

8. Don't leave your shoes on!
In Mosques, some government offices, and in their homes, Afghans take their shoes off. be sure to do so too! a general rule of thumb is If you see a carpet, Take them off but if you have doubts, look around or hang back to see what the locals do.

Afghanistan Facts - Ethnic Diversity #Afghanistan

Nestled in the heart of Asia, Afghanistan is a land that weaves together a tapestry of history, culture, and geographical diversity. Bordered by Iran to the west, Pakistan to the east and south, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, and Tajikistan to the north, and China to the northeast, Afghanistan has long been a crossroads of civilizations and a melting pot of influences.

Its rugged landscapes tell tales of contrasts, from the arid deserts of the south to the towering peaks of the Hindu Kush in the north, where some of the world's highest mountains stand sentinel. The nation's ancient history resonates in the echoes of cities like Balkh and Herat, which witnessed the ebb and flow of trade along the legendary Silk Road and the propagation of Buddhism.

Yet, amidst its historical grandeur, Afghanistan has faced the crucible of conflict. It bore witness to the Soviet invasion, weathered the storms of civil wars, and found itself entangled in the aftermath of the tragic events of September 11, 2001. Throughout these challenges, the resilience and spirit of its people have remained unbroken.

Afghanistan's cultural fabric is richly diverse, woven together by various ethnic groups, each contributing to the nation's mosaic of traditions, languages, and customs. Pashto and Dari (Persian) are the official languages that echo the historical links to the Persian Empire.

As you traverse the narratives of Afghanistan, you'll encounter stories of the Bamiyan Buddhas that once graced the cliffs, a testament to its profound connection with Buddhism, tragically destroyed but eternally etched in memory.

Amidst its trials and triumphs, Afghanistan's cuisine tantalizes with flavors like kebabs, pilafs, and naan bread, while its traditional music, often accompanied by the soulful rubab, weaves melodies that echo through its valleys.

Afghanistan is more than a nation; it's an intricate tale of the human spirit, resilience, and the enduring quest for identity. Its journey continues, a land of ancient legacies and contemporary challenges, where past and present intersect, promising a future of potential and possibility.

Kabul, the capital of Afghanistan, is a city rich in history, culture, and resilience. Nestled in a valley surrounded by rugged mountains, Kabul has been a strategic crossroads along the Silk Road for centuries.

The city's cultural heritage is reflected in landmarks like the historic Babur Gardens, the iconic Darul Aman Palace, and the Kabul Museum, which houses a collection of Afghan artifacts. Despite the challenges it has faced, Kabul's bazaars, like the bustling Mandawi Market, continue to bustle with activity, offering a glimpse into daily life.

Kabul's diverse population, composed of various ethnic groups and tribes, contributes to its vibrant atmosphere. The city's cuisine, influenced by Afghan, Persian, and Central Asian flavors, can be sampled in traditional eateries and street stalls throughout the city.
