As many as 90,000 tourists have visited Kunar, the country’s scenic mountainous province, the provincial Director of Information and Culture said the other day.
In other parts of the country, thousands of tourists from the country and abroad have been seen, visiting ancient areas, recreational sites and other scenic sites of Afghanistan, after firm security restoration in the country.
The return of the Islamic Emirate, may have been, the main reason behind the increase in the number of tourists in the country, as in the past, there was fear and dread, mostly from armed thieves in many parts of the country.
In the past, prevailing insecurity along the roads and highways, prevented both domestic and foreign visitors.
Kunar province, which is bordered with Nangarhar, Laghman and Nuristan provinces, has beautiful recreational sites, with many historical areas.
According to the provincial Director of the Information and Culture, the province has recently attracted over 90,000 tourists, however, mostly from inside the country, due to sure security, following the rise of the Islamic Emirate to power.
In Ghazni, the country’s ancient city, with scores of historical monuments and historical heritages, has been visited by thousands of tourists recently.
Also, the ancient Herat province can also attract thousands of tourists, including foreigners, as security is sure all over the western zone.
The people of Afghanistan should be grateful for what has happened positively in the country, after the return of the Islamic Emirate to the country.
People can drive peacefully in the capital and provinces all day and night and the country’s traders are safe with their lives and properties.
Investments are going well as the Islamic Emirate assured all national and international investors that their security are ensured and they can invest in a peaceful atmosphere in the country.
So, there is a need for the people cooperation with the IEA security organs to prevent all elements behind insecurity including theft, robbery, militancy and other criminal activities, whenever they witness. Cooperation of the people with their Islamic system is most needed and essential for the restoration of better security in the country to help the world be confident that Afghanistan is now more secure than it was in the past.
