Kabul’s Quiet Respite Amid War and Lost Splendor
In Kabul a fragile calm coexists with fear of bombs and a growing Taliban insurgency. Amid the tension, 1970s style revelers stroll with burqa-clad wives, crowds watch a sleeping zoo lion, and boys fly kites under a surveillance balloon as Baghe Babur Gardens host weekly dances and family picnics. Aziz, an 18-year-old Kabul University student, wins a dance contest before a cheering audience, while Shira y’s crying baby is soothed by a healer’s thread charm. The Afghanistan National Museum, once looted and damaged, remains guarded and reopened in 2003, its curator Massoudi recalling the rescue and the city’s fragile safety as visitors stay sparse.
