Herat Travel Tips
Herat travel tips courtesy of GeckoGo
  • You don't want to go there! • Frederic R.
  • Herat is clean with lots of parks and trees, good electricity, a nice old city with lots of rug shops. We stayed at the Five Star hotel and visited the Friday Mosque and the Jihad museum. • Brian O.
  • A city of intelligence and beauty. Unmatched by any other. I'm obviously biased. • Abba K.
