Jalalabad (Jalālābād) is the capital of Nangarhar province in Afghanistan, 150 km east of Kabul near the Khyber Pass. Its population is between 150,000 and 200,000.
Seraj-ul-Emart , the residence of Amir Habibullah and King Amanullah was destroyed in 1929; the gardens however, retain vestiges of the past and offer a peaceful afternoon's stroll. The mausoleum of both rulers is enclosed by a garden facing Seraj-ul-Emart.
