A lush wadi

This wadi was on the back side of the garden, I couldn’t quite believe how lush with vegetation it was, and it was enormous, much bigger than I could ever capture. I can’t even imagine where the water comes from; Tim thought maybe it was some kind of runoff from the DQ.

I really like those "tent like" structures.

A fine shot ! Interesting to see how the architectures are very well integrated in the surroundings. V.

It looks like an oasis. I really like the composition.

Quite a contrast with the dry surroundings!
