Three different villages in Wadi Bani Kharus.

Hidden village - Wadi Bani Kharus

Typical Omani Village No2

Typical Omani VillageThe white tower like structures on some of the roofs are water containers: a truck arrives every couple of days with a delivery.

In the past, water was obtained the hard way!  either a dug well or mountain run-off,  a small wall would be constructed near a fissure in the rock and the water trapped for later use.

With the construction of roads (rather than Donkey tracks)  along with electricity: life has become a lot less arduous.

  1. Very interesting! What a beautiful setting in the first photo. Those rugged hills must have a million stories to tell.
