Alishang

Alishang is the name of a village, a river and a fertile valley of Laghman Province, and also of the district headquarters of Mihtarlam District, in eastern Afghanistan. It lies about 40 km northwest of Jalalabad. The fertile Alishang valley drained by the Alishang River, which is described as "contracted", has an abundance of mounds and caves. It is surrounded by Badrow hills. Alladad Khan castle is located close to the village. The Alishang River valley has a number of villages on the way from Jalalabad, such as Kargai, Tajak, Tigadee and Safees along its river course, which in some reaches is very narrow and can be forded by dismounting from the horse's back.
