Der Ausländertourismus in Afghanistan bis 1979 : Entwicklung, Struktur und räumliche Problematik

Visitors from Pakistan and, during the most recent years, from India formed the main group. Among western tourists there were two distinct groups:1. well-to-do visitors mainly arriving by air and being to a great extent package tourists, 2. young people travelling overland to or from India and Nepal. In general most foreign tourists visited Afghanistan only on transit, not as their main destination. Popular tourist attractions were, apart from Kabul and other towns, places of art-historical or archaeological interest such as Bamyan, Jam, Hadda, Surkh Kotal etc. or of natural beauty such as the lakes of Band-i-Amir.
