Paghman Gardens

 

Paghman Gardens

These days not much is left of Paghman Gardens, save for an Arc de Triomphe style arch. After his 1927 – 1928 tour of Europe, India and Iran, King Amanullah brought in foreign experts to redesign Paghman. Paghman, a small village at the bottom of the Hindu Kush became a holiday retreat with villas and chalets. However, after becoming a Mugaheddin battleground, little remains. In the summer though, Paghman is popular as someplace to go for a break from the city and maybe a picnic.
