Continue exploring the canyon

Цветы Сокотры

Mounting another side of Wadi Dirhur canyon we appeared in a small valley inhabited by locals. This place is rarely visited by tourists. At the end of the road there is a picturesque village located at the verge of the stream. Walking along the stream we found an ancient cemetery where graves are decorated with carved stones resembling winged angels.

From the village it was possible to drive through the plateau directly to Hadiboh, but we turned into the forest of relict Dragoon Trees, where we had to leave our car to walk along the edge of Wadi Dirhur canyon.
