Festival Location: Kabul, Afghanistan

Festival Type(s): Kite Festivals, Traditional Festivals, Bizarre Sports Events

Al Jeezera's David Foster takes a look at the Afghanistani obsession of kite fighting. The rules, simple: use your glass lined kite string to cut your opponents and send their kite into the stratosphere. An interesting piece set rather morosely in a graveyard in Kabul.
