Bamiyan is one of the main tourist attractions in Afghanistan, largely due to the giant destroyed Buddha statues. It's also one of the most picturesque regions in the country.
It lies at an altitude of around 2 500 m and is cooler than Kabul.
Almost everything revolves around one main road running east/west. The buddhas are on the cliff face to the north.
