The Department of Information and Culture of Badakhshan Province in Afghanistan has announced the completion of the restoration and renovation project of the ancient tomb of Hakim Nasir Khusraw, Persian scholar, in the Yimgan district of the province. Zabihullah Amiri, the Head of Information and Culture in Badakhshan, said recently, “The historical site of Nasir Khusraw’s tomb in the Hazrat Sayyid region of Yimgan district, which had been in a state of ruin due to both natural and human-made factors, has been restored and renovated according to standards.” He clarified that the restoration of this tomb was completed within four months with financial and technical assistance from the Aga Khan Trust for Culture (AKTC). This project also highlights the importance of cooperation between local authorities and international organisations, such as AKTC, to ensure the preservation of our cultural history. Continued investment in heritage conservation will contribute to the development of cultural tourism and provide future generations with a tangible link to their historical roots.
