The Bagh-e-Ali Mardan neighborhood is considered one of the ancient parts of Kabul, with a history dating back nearly two hundred years.

This area is located south of the Kabul River, extending from Pul-e-Khishti to Pule Qala Mahmoud Khan.

It borders the second part of Maiwand Road to the north and the Eidgah Mosque to the east. Unfortunately, there is no trace of the garden left today.

This neighborhood connected old alleys and bazaars such as Chaar Chata Bazaar, Qasab Kocha, Charmi Kocha, Burya Foroshi, Payan Chawk, and Reka Khana Bazaar. 

Mir Abdul Qadeer, a resident of the Bagh-e-Ali Mardan area, talks about the history of this area: "Bagh-e Ali Mardan, named after Ali Mardan Khan, was a garden that Ali Mardan Khan built in this area. He lived in the middle of the garden and occasionally visited his farmers."

Another resident, Esmail, said: "In the past, this place was all soil, but now it has turned into an area with high-rise buildings. The garden had only one gate."

The covered alleys and old houses in this area, each over a hundred years old, bear witness to the rich history of this place. According to residents, one of these old houses was the residence of Ali Mardan Khan.

Zalmai, a resident of Bagh-e-Ali Mardan, describes the area: "These houses were all made of mud and straw, and our people had a unique culture and urban lifestyle."

Mohammad Zubair says: "The house you are in now is a very old house. Ali Mardan Khan lived in this house, and if anyone made a joke, he would imprison them in a cell he had in the house."

Ali Mardan Khan was once the governor of Kabul and was highly regarded by the people. He had a great interest in constructing Kabul city, and Chaar Chata Bazaar was also built during his time.
