We fly Kabul to Mazahar-I-Sharif, which means ‘Tomb of the Exalted’ and is believed to be the burial place of the prophet’s son-in-law Ali. The tomb is in a magnificent tiled building surrounded by flocks of white doves. If a grey one joins them, it is said, it will become white in a month.

Morning flight Mazahar to Kabul on arrival time to Kabul we will drive directly to Istalif Village
Kabul The village of Istālif is located north of Kabul the Shomali Plain. The houses are
perched on a hill-side overlooking the Plain with a beautiful view In
spring, the road leading up to it is lined with bushes in purple bloom. Istālif has been famous
for its pottery and grapes were grown here before the Taliban, before the religious students
invaded the village, destroyed most of the buildings and dug up the vines. The village has
been re-built since and the potters have resumed their work. Istālif pottery is frequently
turquoise and spatter-glazed and thus instantly recognizable. After browsing through the
shops we can take a walk down a Cypress-lined road and have a picnic in the garden below
the village.

This morning we will be up at first light drive back up into the Punisher Valley, the
legendary stronghold of Commander Ahmad Shah Masood. When Afghanistan was
on the tourist trail, Panjshir’s proximity to Kabul combined with its astonishing
natural beauty made it most people’s first destination in the country. It was also
conveniently accessed from Pakistan by journalists covering the Russian and Taliban
wars when its geographical situation, and the brilliance of its mujahedeen
commander, the great Ahmed Shah Masood, made it unconquerable. Masood
defeated the Russians here fifteen times, and so comprehensively that they stopped
trying to capture it. Most of the television footage of the war shown in the West was
shot here. The river has a narrow and extremely fertile flood plain and is famous for
its fruit. However the sides are steep mountains, which is why it is so defensible. In
the spring, watered by the melting snow these mountainsides are dark green giving
an impression of overwhelming fertility. We will visit Masood’s grave and his
headquarters at Astana returning to Kabul overnight Kabul
