Bradt Travel Guides. Engelsk text. Edition 2026
The new Bradt Afghanistan Guidebook is the first guide to the country from a mainstream publisher in almost 20 years.
Afghanistan is a paradox: a nation so well-known internationally, yet one so infrequently explored that it has been effectively untouched by tourism since being a key stop on the hippie trail four decades ago.
