Travel Guide Lac De Carghea

Created in the 1950 s, this artificial lake surrounded by mountains offers an excellent opportunity, especially in summer, to leave dust and pollution in Kabul. Here the air is fresh. There are pedal boats to rent and children who come to play with their kites. A real moment of life to savour! You can walk around the lake and stop enjoying a tea in one of the many customers that border it. In 2012, the Spozhmai hotel on the lake was hit by a drama: the Taliban launched an attack on them, while young Afghans were celebrating an anniversary. Hidden under burqas, they opened fire on people who dînaient them, accusing them of drinking alcohol and attending prostitutes. 17 civilians lost their lives.This is also where the Golf club of Kabou is located.
