About 691 tourists visited Afghanistan in 2021, rising to 2,300 the following year and 7,000 in 2023, according to the Associated Press, citing Mohammad Saeed, head of the Tourism Directorate in Kabul. More than 10,179 have visited the country since August 2021, a spokesperson for Afghanistan's Ministry of Tourism told CNN.

"The growth of the tourism industry has a positive effect on the country's economy," the spokesperson for the Ministry of Culture said. The country sees most tourists coming from the United States, the European Union, China, India, the United Arab Emirates andIran, the spokesperson added.

Afghanistan's Taliban rulers have issued a ban on women's voices and bare faces in public under new laws approved by the supreme leader in efforts to combat vice and promote virtue.

 

Article 13 relates to women. It says it is mandatory for a woman to veil her body at all times in public and that a face covering is essential to avoid temptation and tempting others. Clothing should not be thin, tight or short.

Women are obliged to cover themselves in front of non-Muslim males and females to avoid being corrupted. A woman's voice is deemed intimate and so should not be heard singing, reciting, or reading aloud in public. It is forbidden for women to look at men they are not related to by blood or marriage and vice versa.

 

No thank you

Only if my visit ends with me smuggling out women, children, and queer people.

Unironically several folks would be treated better as tourists there than in Nazi Israel

Afghanistan has some stunning attractions. If the UAE scam millions of people into visiting their overpriced, artificial cities every year while having a human rights record not much better than Afghanistan, I don't see what's stopping the Talibans from luring backpackers in!

Whenever people visit places like Afghanistan or North Korea, I'm like...why? Do one thing they consider vaguely weird and you end up a political prisoner. :deadbanana4:

It's not the scenery, nature and rocks must be really pretty, it's just the society that doesn't want me as me there, so yeah, you didn't really answer our question
