Asir mud house - Saudi Arabia — Fotopedia

As the war was going on between yemeni rebels and Saudi Arabia in the area, i was not sure to be able to go in the Asir (Aseer) area.
The place is very close to Yemen, and even if the culture is different, many houses reminded me of the other side of the hills!
This village is fortified, so you are not allow to enter into, but just go around.
