Al Sogara Village Carved In Mountain In Oman

---

It is one of the most remote villages in one of the most remote countries, but the settlement of Al Sogara in Oman has survived over 500 years. Carved into the limestone, this tiny community of 25 clings to the edge of the 2980m Green Mountain. The villagers have descended from the Alshariqi tribe from Jordan over 1000 years ago.
