          It got washed away in 2007 I think, but it was over a branch of the Swat river in Bahrain.

            Oh, may be it was built by the Wali of Swat. In Bahrain, as for I remeber, there is one bridge on the road to Kalam.

              Which Bahrain are we talking about here?
              Even Adobe Photoshop can't change me.

              A line[Durrand line] of hatred that raised a wall between the two brothers -Hamid Karzai

              For generations, the Hindus of India prayed for deliverance from "the venom of the cobra, the teeth of the tiger and the vengeance of the Afghan."


              The men of Kábul and Khilj also went home; and whenever they were questioned about the Musulmáns of the Kohistán (the mountains), and how matters stood there, they said, "Don't call it Kohistán, but Afghánistán; for there is nothing there but Afgháns and disturbances." Thus it is clear that for this reason the people of the country call their home in their own language Afghánistán, and themselves Afgháns. The people of India call them Patán; but the reason for this is not known. But it occurs to me, that when, under the rule of Muhammadan sovereigns, Musulmáns first came to the city of Patná, and dwelt there, the people of India (for that reason) called them Patáns—but God knows!

              -Ferishta, 1560–1620

                The "Bahrain" on the road to Kalam in Pakhtunkhwa...but actually it wasn't a very big bridge, I shall see what other pictures I have of the area.

                    The Swat

                    "They" say 3 is a charm, this is my third try at uploading these pics.....so I will just upload 2 from one folder and then maybe it will work! Patience.

                    Got it! The sawmill was just next to the original photo of the broken bridge I first posted.
