I wrote about the
old city of Kabul -- with its quaint maze of narrow alleys and beautiful mud and thatch houses with carved wooden windows. When standing in the courtyard of these houses, it feels like you're standing inside an intricately decorated jewel box. The
slide show with the story includes amazing historical images. (Here's another
link to the Old Kabul story on a web site called "Happy News," though it has dubious url links highlighted throughout the story.)
This neighborhood, Murad Khane, was stacked high with mud and trash, which can be seen behind the children in this photo.
There was a massive clean-up, and for a while, this family's door was left suspended in mid-air because its entrance was built after several years of mud and trash had piled up. Their door has since been repaired, but the plastic bags and trash can still be seen on the wall next to their door.
