#Nature / Park
Enjoy a peaceful walk through Bagh-e Babur--the blooming gardens that contradict the dusty appearance of the surrounding city. Established in the 16th century, the gardens contain the tomb of King Babur, the founder of this lush complex. Roses, wild cherries, and cypresses represent only a portion of what you can see here. Many festivals take place within the park, but you can also take a stroll, have a picnic, or read a book on the lawn. Go to the highest point of the gardens for a full view of the city.

    Babur Garden is a historic place with beautiful scenery and different kinds of trees and flowers. It is one of the best places in Kabul to visit specially with the family. There are some ancient stores and if you be lucky some art event and exhibitions. Babur Garden is one of the safest public places in Kabul. The Garden sorunded by a big wall and no one can enter without checking.
