 Seeing recent pictures of Band-i-Amir and Bamiyan is mind-blowing. I was there, too, but many years ago -- 1970 I think -- when Afghanistan was still at peace. Band-i-Amir was heavenly. I'm happy to see that it still is.

 Excellent page... Of course, true Buddhism is not actually a religious organization, a subtlety apparently lost on the Taliban...
