General Note:

Summary: “The remote land of Bamyan lies at the heart of Afghanistan in the shadow of the Hindu Kush, far from the well-beaten tracks of the 21st century. The spirit of the great Buddhas still presides over this valley. To travel here is to discover something of an older world when merchants, pilgrims and conquerors from half of Asia passed through the region”—(p. [2]).
