Group photo, a glimpse of Afghanistan's "Chicken Street" once bustling, to explore the story of the woman behind the store
In Afghanistan's old and new regimes, the capital city of Kabul once again attracted the attention of the world. In this war-torn city, there is in fact a famous and bustling commercial street, which is "Chicken Street". It is located in the southern section of the shopping street.
When you see the name Chicken Street, many people will naturally associate it with chickens. In fact, it now has nothing to do with chickens. But in ancient times it used to be a distribution center for broilers and eggs. There is also a saying that a large number of Europeans and Americans came to Afghanistan after the overthrow of the Taliban government in 2001. Foreigners are known to have a penchant for antiquities. A group of shrewd and far-sighted Afghan businessmen bought antique artifacts from Chinese traders at low prices in advance and shipped them back to Afghanistan, then they resold them to Westerners at high prices on Chicken Street. Later, when the Westerners realized that they had been cheated, they compared these merchants to "early chickens". Hence the name of this shopping street. The street, which specializes in antiques and precious stones, was a source of delight when there was no war, but now, although there are still stores on both sides of the street, many of them have closed and the street is empty.
This shopping street doesn't have the air of a modern metropolis though, it's at best like what we see when we catch a fair. But it has been quite prosperous for the people here. Now in addition to the depression, we can no longer see the initial noisy and lively market. We can only imagine what it was like when merchants were selling and people were bargaining.
And a street alongside it, located in the northern section of the Flower Street, is indeed a real flower street. Along both sides of the street are stores selling flowers, before the war, the aroma here, you can choose your favorite flowers or paper flowers, plastic flowers.
The stores operating here are also divided into large and small sizes, with strong merchants specializing in wholesaling, average merchants acting as agents, and small traders specializing in retail. We all know that as Arab traders, Afghans have had the tradition and talent of doing business since ancient times. In ancient times, Arab merchants is through the Silk Road, the Chinese silk, porcelain and other commodities constantly transported to Europe.
Here, every store is run by men, and so are the guides. Afghan women basically do not work, and society deprives many women of the rights they should enjoy. As a result, men are left to take on all aspects of society on their own.
According to custom, Muslim women are not allowed to show their faces easily. Some of them live all day long covered and hidden under the burqa, and women here do not have any social status at all. Most ordinary women begin their "dark" life from the day they are born. They are uneducated, unambitious and poorly educated, and this is the only way that men can be more manipulative.
In many of the stores on Chicken Street, brightly colored and ornate women's clothing hangs cluttered on the walls, sometimes mixed with antiques such as guns, copper kettles, crutches, and jewelry boxes, which seems a bit out of place to us. When we think about it, this kind of arrangement seems to be a reflection of the current social situation. Afghanistan is a typical male-dominated society, and they never take women seriously. They are like a tool for men to show off their status, position and ability.
An old Afghan man shows off his 150-year-old rifle collection on Chicken Street, known as "Kabul's street of antiques". Mohammad, who has owned an antique store for 35 years, displays an assortment of rifles he has collected over the years from the three periods of resistance to the British invasion.
Because of the complexity of the religious and social composition of the region, the destructive nature of the war and the deep-rooted hierarchical concepts of the people, the people living here have been completely confined in their minds, ignorance, ignorance, and authoritarianism are rampant here. The social order was chaotic, and conflicts of all sizes continued, so that this ancient city, which could have been famous for its long history, has been baptized by several wars, but has not been able to be pacified so far. It was not until August 19th, with the withdrawal of American troops and the establishment of the "Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan", that the 20 years of war in Afghanistan finally came to an end. Due to the persecution of war for a long time, this land has been devastated, and the people living in hell have "temporarily" got a chance to take a break. We don't know if there will be lasting peace, but this long-lost peace is very precious to the local people.
We hope that there will be no more wars, and we pray that the people who still love this place will be able to regain their lives.
