Ministry of foreign affairs writes on their website:

Tourism in Afghanistan was at its glorious best in the 1970s. Over 90,000 tourists visited Afghanistan from all over the world to see the unique beauty of the country and experience the treat of one of the most hospitable people. Today, despite decades of war, Kabul remains a fascinating city that embraces both the old and the new. With the presence of the international community and the ongoing redevelopment projects, Kabul has been given a touch of modern architecture that gives the city hope of a peaceful and prosperous future.

Afghanistan has a history of more than six thousand years, with many historical sights and attractions, among these are the more than two thousand years old famous Buddha Statues, the tomb of Hazrat-e Ali (the son in law of Prophet Mohammed PBUH and the fourth caliph of Islam) in Mazar-e Sharif, the beautiful city of Balkh (also known as the mother of all cities) and the lakes of Band-e Amir in Bamyan province.

Afghanistan has also been of great strategic importance for invading armies, from Genghis Khan to Alexander the Great. All these armies have left astonishing trails behind, trails that have been forgotten due to decades of war but are yet to be discovered. The Government is working to rebuild the war torn infrastructure of Afghanistan, a major project to develop transport links and a nationwide telecommunication link between Kabul and the other provinces has been established.

Furthermore, to assist the Tourism Industry of Afghanistan, the Government strongly encourages and offers its full support to the private sector to invest into the Tourism Industry. With ever increasing global tourism, the Afghan Tourist Industry has tremendous potential to become profitable. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Afghanistan is willing to support any attempt that will further develop the tourism industry of Afghanistan.
