Nice to see those plans of the old city of Kabul, it's a very interesting place to visit, somewhere I'd love to go back to if I was able to!

I spent a few days there in 1976 on my way, via bus, from Kathmandu to London on the 'Hippy Trail', so here are a few of my pictorial "recollections' of bygone era (46 years ago) !!!!
