Here most of the bath 5:00 is open until 5:00 at night, has been closed. And in the morning take a shower of most people, asked the reason, Kabul said, the morning take a shower to help a day's work, at the same time the morning bath house is relatively clean.

In a public bath door, vendors also went to work early, they mainly provide shoe shine service for bath guest, in addition to bath guest selling shampoo, hair conditioner. When we arrived, these vendors are working energetically, thus bath business unpopular. A bath here to 5000 Afghanis (2 yuan), to receive an average of 500 passengers daily bath.

One day, the boy bathhouse child about RMB 1000 yuan income. Next to the female part of the business is not a good man. The boss said, just for the opening of the female bathhouse, foreground is very considerable.

Kabul, bathhouse, men take a shower is not naked, but in a bathhouse provided by cotton close-fitting trousers. We ask why a young man, his answer is very interesting: when I was young, my father took me to take a shower, to wear pants, now or so, maybe I should go home to ask my dad, when he was a child he take a shower wearing underpants?

Kabul, bathhouse and we are not the same as domestic, no shower, no bath pond. People can use a scoop water out of a few small pool, splashing in the body, the pool water of different temperature, up to everyone to decide what washing. Kabul, people like to wash a hot bath, indoor temperature is high, so that our camera in the shower for a long time can not work. The people here feel very strange to us in the bathhouse interview, when taking a lot of people do not oppose. Source: global network
