When I say the word AFGHANISTAN, what do you think of?
Yes - what you thought of is true... There has been continuous war in this country since 1979. It's not a very safe place to visit, and only advised for experienced travelers.
That being said, I'm really excited to have this opportunity to explore Afghanistan for the next week. The content that you are about to see over the next 7 days -- in regards to the Afghan people, culture and lifestyle -- does not exist, anywhere, on the internet. You guys are in for a real treat!
Join me as I take show you my first 24 hours in the 3rd biggest city called Mazar-I-Sharif. This place is awesome.

WHAT CAN $10 USD GET YOU IN AFGHANISTAN?
Today in Mazar-I-Sharif, Afghanistan -- I bought 9 things for less than $10 USD! A turban, kebabs, shisha, rickshaw ride... and can you guess what else?!
Much like its neighboring countries of Iran and Pakistan, daily life expenses in Afghanistan are VERY CHEAP when compared to Western standards.
I had a lot of fun making this video around Afghanistan and I'm really enjoying this country so far. More than anything else, I hope that this video changes your perspectives about Afghanistan and shows you that life is existing here just like it does in your home country. And frankly, I find Afghan culture here to be the most untouched, raw and authentic in the world.
It would mean a lot to me if you shared this video to help spread a positive image about Afghanistan, because sadly, you won't see too much of it online.
Come say hi on the Instagram @drewbinsky! I will respond to your DMs :)

10. Faizabad
Located on the northeast part of Afghanistan, Faizabad was historically remote due to bad road connections, which has helped to its local culture intact. To the present day two bazaars still function in Faizabad where they trade diverse items like cotton cloth and cutlery and provisions like tea, sugar and salt. Part of the historic architecture is in ruins, but other forts, mosques and shrines are still intact and tell the history of the region.
09. Jalalabad
Jalalabad, in the eastern part of the country, is considered one of the most beautiful cities in Afghanistan thanks to the large green areas and surrounding water. It was an outpost for Ahmad Shah Durrani, the founder of modern Afghanistan, who used the city during his military campaigns in India. The architecture in Jalalabad is beautiful, from the Mausoleum of King Amanullah Khan to mosques and the Nangarhar University.
08. Samangan
Located in northern Afghanistan, the small town of Samangan used to be a medieval caravan stop. It was also part of the territories where Buddhist expansion reached around the fourth and fifth centuries. The place called Takht-e-Rustam on a hill near the town is a main example of the period’s architecture, with a mix of the Buddhist style. Every Thursday the weekly market takes place, an ancient traditional activity still preserved.
07. Bagram
Located north of the capital Kabul, the small town of Bagram was in ancient times an important passageway of the Silk Road for merchants coming from ancient India. The earliest mentions refer to a Persian settlement, followed by the Greek-influenced city planning and further Arab rulers.
06. Bamiyan
Located in central Afghanistan, Bamiyan is one of the last cities where the Buddhist expansion reached. Another culturally rich place, at the crossroads of East and West, Bamiyan’s archeology reveals a mix of Turkish, Greek, Persian, Indian and Chinese influence. Famous for the giant Buddha statues, destroyed in 2001, later discoveries in the area include a few caves with wall paintings from the 5th and 9th centuries and another giant statue,
05. Herat

04. Mazar-e Sharif
Legend says that the city of Mazar-e Sharif owes its existence to a dream based on which a shrine was built and then gradually the entire city around it. It is mostly known by tourists as the Blue Mosque City, referring to the Shrine of Hazrat Ali in the center. Mazar-e Sharif is the capital of the Balkh province and a place historically part of several civilizations, which makes it multiethnic and full of interesting contrasts.
03. Kandahar
Alexander the Great founded the city of Alexandria Arachosia in 329 BC, on the place of what today is known as Kandahar. Afghanistan’s second largest city is one of the oldest known human communities, with an intricate history and culture. One of the most interesting places to see in Kandahar is the Friday Mosque of Kandahar, a holy Islamic place of worship considered of utmost importance in the country.

Considered one of the oldest cities in the world, Balkh in northern Afghanistan was named by the Arabs ‘The Mother of Cities.’ At the crossroads between eastern Asia and the Middle East, Balkh was heavily influenced by the Buddhist culture before the Arab invasion. The ancient ruins of the city include Buddhist constructions and fortifications evoking the old Asian culture.

The country of Afghanistan is world renowned for its hash - or the most pure form of cannabis. In fact, it's believed that hash originated in this country (Afghan hash) and even today, it's the world's largest exporter. Some people even say that Afghanistan is synonymous with hash.
I wanted to dive deep into the hash culture of Afghanistan, so my friend and I went to the Balkh province and this is what we discovered.
Would you ever try hash?

Blue Mosque, Afghanistan
The Blue Mosque, also called the Shrine of Hazrat-e Ali in Mazar-e Sharif, Afghanistan.
According to legend, a Middle Eastern mullah (scholar of Islam) had a dream that Ali bin Abi Talib, the son-in-law and cousin of the prophet Muhammad, had his bones resting in what is now northwestern Afghanistan. Captivated by his story, Ahmad Sanjar, who was the Sultan of the Seljuq Empire from 1118 to 1157, constructed the Shrine of Ali in northwestern Afghanistan. He even constructed a city around the shrine, called Mazar-i-Sharif, to which thousands of religious Muslims migrated.
