Ghabriel - traditional village outside Herat

Lots to look at but be careful! There are landmines and some very close to town. Never venture of the beaten track by yourself. See where the Taliban used to hide in caves, see monuments thousands of years old and visit the Nomads who somehow manage to survive the perils of their chosen ways. Your jaw will drop everywhere you go. Its like going back to the 19th century but everyone has a satelite dish.
