It is known for its scenic valleys, mild climate and rich historical sites, and was once a summer resort for the Afghan royal family and elite.

In recent years, the area is gradually recovering, attracting tourists to explore its natural beauty and cultural sites.

Located in the valleys of the Hindu Kush mountain range at an altitude of about 2,000 meters above sea level, Paghman boasts cool summers and pleasant natural surroundings, in contrast to the dry climate of Kabul.
