8-1. Protection of Slope and Planting Design |
@The local geological condition consists of stone mingling with a sandy silt layer. In order to consolidate the slope of the ground, 2-m-height stone walls limited less than 2 m with an angle of 60 degrees are constructed in the shape of stairs. For drainage, crushed stones are packed on the back side of the stone walls with 300-mm thick. Optionally, for planting seedlings, it will be necessary to mix clay soil and sand to improve the water-retaining capacity of the soil. |

Planting design and water supply system. A drip irrigation system is utilized. The main lines run beneath the planned area. A dripper is placed along the plant lines. |

8-2. Cave Garden |
@The Cave Garden will be situated in the northern area of the Bamiyan museum. The existing caves, which are typical of Bamiyan and difficult to access, will be reconstructed in this garden. Several types of caves, such as Caves U, T, F(c), M, B(a), B(d), A lower (a), L, C(a), D, K3, J(d) and (g), O(a), and XV(b) in the Bamiyan Valley and Cave 4 in the Foladi Valley are recommended for reconstruction. |

8-2-1. Size of Caves in the Bamiyan |
@@The sizes of the 79 caves were surveyed. Over half of the caves are from 2-4 m in width and 2-5 m in depth, and a third of the caves are between 2 and 3 m in height. |
