The Most Afghan Crowded Bazaar
The Old Kabul Bazaar exists today much the same as it did in the distant past. Metal workers still today pound out farm implements with hammer and anvil or etch intricate designs into blackened pans prior to sale, much the same as in centuries past. Children, animals, old men with their coursing hounds—all are as familiar in the Old Kabul Bazaar today as they were when caravans spanning the mountains and high deserts stopped in Kabul to secure the rare ingredients used in the millennial art of natural vegetable dyeing.
