From the American People
Turquoise Mountain (Firuzkuh in Dari) was the greatest indigenous Afghan capital during the Middle Ages, and for Afghan people, the name still evokes the country’s glorious cultural heritage. Turquoise Mountain Foundation is a non-profit, non-governmental organization specializing in urban regeneration, business development, and education in traditional arts and architecture. Rory Stewart established the charity in 2006 at the behest of His Excellency the President of Afghanistan Hamid Karzai and HRH the Prince of Wales.
