| Description | View from Shahr-i-Zohok (the "Red City") in Bamyan Province. Once a citadel housing about 3,000 people, it was destroyed by the Mongols in the 13th century. The invaders also leveled the nearby city that the fortress had protected and killed all its inhabitants (some 150,000) and animals. In memory, the site is today known as Shahr-i-Gholghola (the "City of Screams"). Visit The World Factbook for more information about Afghanistan. |
