BAMYAN CITY (Pajhwok): Despite the absence of flights and security concerns on the highway, more than 200,000 tourists including foreigners visited rare sites in central Bamyan province.
Local officials say most of the tourists were from Kandahar, Kabul Ghazni, Daikundi and northern provinces. Some of the tourists travelled to the province along with their families.
Figures from the Information and Culture Department, which issues tickets to visitors, show the number is high.
