Direction the old souk, a shady square surrounded by arcades. This is where the villagers meet to play cards or chat. Superb photos in perspective, especially since some of the elders like to pose. Going a little deeper into the back of the souk, you come to a falaj and the ruins of the Al Khanajirah fort. The village is dominated by a hill where the remains of seven watchtowers still stand. One can climb up the hill by cutting through the old alleyways, where some beautiful carved wooden doors topped with Quranic inscriptions are nestled. From the top, the whole area and the sands of the Sharqiyah are dominated, making it one of the most coherent and photogenic urban ensembles in the region.

En quittant les Wahibas Sands en direction d'Ibra, en retrait de la grande route, un ancien village fortifié. On s'est garé à coté de la place du souk et avons grimpé à travers des ruelles aux maisons en ruine jusqu'à une tour en ruine. Jolie point de vue sur l'oasis et les environs
