Afghanistan's Most IMPRESSIVE SHRINE! 🇦🇫

Travel to Mazar-i-Sharif, Afghanistan in 2024 to find the Shrine of Hazrat Ali. Popular Muslim tradition contends that the Ali is buried in Najaf, Iraq but Afghans typically tell another story that Ali’s followers reputedly took his body to be secretly buried near Mazar-e-Sharif.

The shrine of Imam Ali are one of Afghanistan’s most iconic sights, and pilgrims come from across the country to pay their respects at the tomb contained inside.

Wednesdays are reserved for women, but because I arrived super early, I was allowed in because the women were still at home with the children. It was a short visit, but a great one. I even met the gatekeeper to the shrine!
