The climate of Fayzabad (Afghanistan)
Fayzabad, also known as Feyzabad is located in the north eastern part
of Afghanistan in the Badakhshan province. The city is situated on the
right bank of the Kokcha River. This river is famous for the
semiprecious stones that are mined here. This Lapis Lazuli has a
beautiful azure blue color. The city used to be very remote but ever
since a highway was built access to the city was improved. This also
has had a positive influence on the economic climate of the city.
Because of its northern location it is much colder here than in the
southern parts of the country. Especially during the winter subzero
temperatures are not uncommon. During the summer temperatures are just
above 30 degrees Celsius. These temperatures are much more bearable
than temperatures in other parts of the country. Quite an amount of
rain falls here, especially during the winter months.

More climate information
Climate figures are very useful but don’t present a general impression
of the climate and the eventual weather circumstances within a certain
period. The figures don’t always reflect the chance of wintry weather,
extreme heat or hurricanes. That is why we offer useful extra climate
information for each month of the year:
