EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the haunting beauty of the ruined city of Shahr-e Zohak in the Bamiyan province, Afghanistan. Located in Asia, this historical site is a testament to the rich cultural heritage and turbulent past of this region. The image showcases an elevated view of the dramatic landscape, with its rugged rock formations and extreme terrain. The ancient city, now reduced to ruins, stands as a reminder of its former glory. Built structures made from sandstone blend seamlessly with the mountainous backdrop, creating a picturesque scene that evokes a sense of awe and wonder. The absence of people adds to the mystique surrounding this place. As we gaze upon this color image captured by Alex Treadway on a sunny day, we are transported back in time to explore the physical geography and topography that shaped Shahr-e Zohak's history. This non-urban scene invites us to reflect on our own place within such vast landscapes and contemplate how civilizations rise and fall over time. Visiting this historic destination would be an unforgettable travel experience for those seeking adventure off-the-beaten-path.
