Location: Kabul, East Afghanistan, Afghanistan, Shohada-ye Salehin of Central Kabul
Shor bazaar in old Kabul. Shor means sour and bazaar means merchandising area.
At Shor Bazaar, once a bustling Sikh community, five Sikh families camp, as impoverished caretakers of their dilapidated temple. The Khalsa Gurdwara is a looming, shattered, concrete shell. Bright, hot sunlight pours through holes blasted by mortars in the roof, slanting into empty, dusty halls where thousands of Sikhs once celebrated religious festivals.
