Abdul Haq Square (Pashto: د عبدالحق څلورلارې) is a square in Kabul, Afghanistan. It was named after Abdul Haq.[1] It is located between Mikrorayon One and Mikrorayon Two, two apartment blocks,[1] and "close to several ministries and the national intelligence agency,"[2] including Kabul Tower,[3] which houses the Ministry of Communications and Information Technology.
