Drinking fresh water in a cave near the deserted village of Sab Bani Khamis in Jebel Shams in Oman
Fresh water in a cave near the deserted village of Sab Bani Khamis in Jebel Shams in Oman. The deserted village Sab Bani Khamis was abandoned after a dam closed off their water supply that made it possible to live there. Just simply imagine a rocky ledge of no more than thirty meters wide with a deadly drop to the depths of the canyon. A couple of terrasses where they managed to grow crops and a few mud houses underneath a hanging ledge that towers above for hundreds of meters.
