Culture & Travel Tips
Best Time to Visit
Spring (April-May) and autumn (September-October) would have the best weather. However, security concerns make all travel inadvisable regardless of season.
Cultural Notes
Afghanistan has a rich cultural heritage at the crossroads of Central Asia. The Buddhas of Bamiyan (destroyed by Taliban in 2001) were famous. Afghan carpets, poetry (Rumi was from the region), and music are celebrated. The Taliban's return has severely restricted cultural expression, especially for women.
Insider Tips
Dari and Pashto are official languages. The Afghani is the currency. Normal tourism does not exist. The country has remarkable historical and natural attractions that are currently inaccessible. Any travel requires security teams and is extremely high-risk.
