A boy jumps from a concrete diving board into a pool on Bibi Mahro Hill in Wazir Akbar Kahn section in Kabul on one October afternoon. Five years after the fall of the Taliban, children have more freedom to enjoy swimming, exposing their skin in public which was banned during the five-year rule of the one of the most repressive regimes in the world. This swimming pool was said to have been built during the Soviet rule, later used as an execution wall by different warlord factions before Taliban took over the city in 1996.
