Cliff-Hugging Villages
Guoliang Village, China
Haid Al-Jazil, Yemen
Remote, precarious and extraordinarily beautiful, this tiny village sits on a vast boulder, suspended above the desolate Wadi Dawan in Yemen’s Desert Valley. The incredible houses, some of which are 11 stories tall, are made from mud bricks. They need diligent maintenance in the rainy season but some of them are a staggering 500 years old.
very nice and interesting
