PHOTO : University Students After The War.The peace and happines just only a short while. After the war aginst Russian Armies, the people of Afghanistan facing a kind of power struggle amongst The Afghan Warlords untill the Taliban Group taken over majority of Administration areas. They never have long time peace life here. The differance from PALASTEIN, this people never know marathon conference, meeting, summit or whatever to prolonged the result. War is a solution to them. Either win or loose is final of the game.

Have a tea (chai)

by janchan

Get ready to drink huge quantities of tea, usually green tea (chai sabs), in every place you will visit ...!(maybe that's why Afghani people don't sleep too much !!)They offer it without sugar and together with sweets or candies.

Burqa

by janchan

In spite of what western media told us, burqa is still widely used in Afghanistan, especially in the province. It's something like a curtain that covers the whole body included the face...After the fall of Talibans regime women kept wearing it for security reasons, actually it'a a sort of protection.They usually take it off once they get inside a place such as a school, office, or private places...In Kabul they are mostly light blue, but other provinces have different colors... white... purple... orange........

Do as the locals

by Claus_Qvist

In Afghanistan, Islam has got a lot of strict rules, such as:Taking off the shoes before entering a mosque or a house.Always eat with the right hand.Dress modestly! Even men should never wear shorts or singlet shirts.Be prepared to shake hands - a lot. Greetings are warm and plentyful.Don't be a woman! They are still a few milleniums away from sexual equality.

Be very sensitive to what your...

by allyborwick

Be very sensitive to what your host tells you, but here are a few basics. (mostly for women) 1. Never look a man in the eyes, and never attempt to touch a man you are not married to. 2. Always have your head and shoulders covered, and wear longsleeved dresses and loose pants 3. Avoid the religious police and do not travel alone 4. Afghans are wonderfully hospitable but please be aware that it is illegal under the Taliban to visit an Afghan home or to invite them to yours.

by Narviking

A important part of afghan culture is the music and my afghan friend used to sing in Radio Afghanistan. Music was strongly restricted from 1992 and became totally banned by Taliban in 1996. Now music is once again allowed.PHOTO: MY FRIEND SING IN THE STUDIOS OF RADIO AFGHANISTAN IN THE 'GOOD OLD DAYS'....
