Bagh-e Bala Palace

It is located at a hilltop in the Bagh-e Bala (High Garden) park near Karte Parwan.

The palace has a large pool (added in the 1970s) and is surrounded by pine trees.

[1] It was built by Emir Abdur Rahman Khan in 1893 as a place for him to spend summers in, and he later died there in 1901.

After being abandoned by 1930, it was renovated and turned into a restaurant under King Zahir Shah in the 1960s.

The area around the palace (Bagh-e Bala) has become a large public park.
