Question

What historical landmark does Babi take Laila and Tariq to see?

Answer 1

Answer:

 does Babi take Tariq and Laila?

Laila, Tariq, and Babi are taking a day trip to the famous Bamiyan Buddhas. On the way over, Babi and the driver talk about the history of imperialism in Afghanistan. They climb to the top of the statues.

Hakim surprises Laila and Tariq with a trip to see the giant stone sculptures of Buddha in Bamiyan Valley.

Babi had wanted Laila and Tariq to understand their country's living, breathing heritage—a heritage quite apart from the violence and turmoil of the national wars. The Buddhas, testimony to an ancient community of monks that lived in caves within the cliffs, symbolize the cultural richness of this national heritageHere, he is able both to share his own suffering and—in a way that Mammy cannot—insist on his love for Laila. Babi's dream for leaving Afghanistan is, ironically, based in his love for the country—a love he thinks can be better kept alive by continuing to celebrate its culture and cuisine abroad.J
