One could not blame people of Afghanistan not being able to preserve or even appreciate this spot of fairy tales and luxury when at the same time they are hungry and lacking food, shelter and all basic commodities we take for granted.
And all foreigners or their servants occupying this country for years have brought nothing to them but destruction, death and despair.

Thanks for sharing, I don't know if want to be running (maybe more like driving) around in that country, what a shame what have happen to that building

Multimedia photojournalist and filmmaker John D McHugh travelled to Afghanistan in February 2010.
He was there to cover the conflict, but during the trip he managed to gain rare access to the off-limits Queen's Palace - a former seat of Afghanistan's royal family - also known as Tajbeg. He says the building and its turbulent past represents the sad history of Afghanistan.

I so want to got to Afghanistan and document life there. Ohh and North Korea, yeah that is my number one spot to go.
