Yi-Pin Lin, a Tufts University associate professor, visited Afghanistan after the Taliban encouraged tourism post-war. Despite friends' concerns, he joined other venturesome tourists bolstering the nation's economy. Attractions include mosques, mountains, deserts, and Buddha statues. While Afghanistan is known for its severe restrictions on women, the country has become relatively calmer since the end of the 20-year conflict.
