Persian for "Band-e Amir National Park" On April 22, 2009, Afghanistan declared its first national park to preserve and promote the aesthetic value of a chain of brilliantly blue lakes formed by natural dams high in the Hindu Kush. In the rugged desert of central Afghanistan, there is a series of six lakes called Band-e-Amir.

Experience of Visitors

 According to Afghan senator Prince Mostapha Zaher, the last king of Afghanistan, Mohammad Zaher Shah's grandson, "I have visited Band-e-Amir National Park 28 times over the previous 15 years and I have not heard a single shot being fired."
This is not to say there aren't any security hazards present.
As the nation's first director-general of the National Environmental Protection Agency of Afghanistan, Prince Zaher referred to the park as "poetry for the eyes, poetry for the soul, and poetry for existence."
According to James Willcox, owner of the UK-based travel firm Untamed Borders, which frequently leads English-speaking excursions to the nation, "Band-e-Amir is in a part of Bamiyan province that hasn't witnessed any insurgency attacks since the international community has been there during the last 17 years."
