I had no idea that band e amir and bamiyan also had maqams. The first set of three pics is of a place called as tang e ajdahar, where it is believed that imam Ali a.s slayed a dragon near a village of bamiyan.
The second set of three pictures is a place near a waterfall of band e amir where there's believed that there are footsteps of imam ali a.s horse and a spring called as chashma e shafa, (curing spring) associated with imam Ali a.s as well.
The last set of three pictures is a qadahgah near tht spring where it is believed that imam Ali a.s prayed 2 rakats of prayer when he was in this region.

Following is a pdf that I found online from which some of the maqams in Kabul as well as other parts of Afghanistan are taken. I'll be using this pdf as a reference in upcoming days.
Ep 54 : ziarat e sakhi, Finding the footprint of Imam Ali a.s. There were many misconceptions regarding this place in my mind but alhamdulillah everything is cleared now. There is no grave here nor any qadamgah, it's simply a place called as guzargah where it is said that Imam Ali a.s prayed for some time and then left for mazar sharif. Interesting thing is that the ultra orthodox wahhabi talibanis doesn't want you to visit this shrine. Hmmm....
