Pristine beauty lake on the mountain in Afghanistan
The green lakes are still pristine, lying on the mountains that are being planned into Afghanistan's first national park, a country that was heavily devastated by war.
Afghanistan signed a decision to establish a national park called Band-e-Amir on April 22, including six lakes located between mountains with naturally-formed dams.Photo: Telegraph.
The park is located in the relatively peaceful central highlands of Afghanistan, once a tourist attraction during the period before the harsh Taliban regime ruled (1996-2001). Photo: AP.
The mountain lakes are located at an altitude of 2,900 meters and the Band-e-Amir park has a total area of about 600 square kilometers. Photo: AP.

Park Band-e-Amir is located in Bamiyan province, which once saw the Taliban fighters destroy two giant Buddha statues carved into the cliff in 2001. Photo: Reuters.
The remaining ruins of these buildings are likely to be the highlight of visitors to Afghanistan's first national park. Photo: Reuters.
