Ramadan Nights in Jabal Akhdar

Hanging Terraces are built with a variety of structural supports, the most common being retaining walls made of stones, along with carefully designed landscaping. Depending on their use, they can be adorned with plants, flowers, trees, seating areas, and other decorative features which create a lush and picturesque environment.

The houses are hundreds of years old and were lived in for generations. They all provide a spectacular view overlooking the valley and the Al Jabal Al Akhdhar mountainside with its hanging terraces.

Hanging Terraces are stunning, multi-level outdoor terraces or gardens which can be found in various cultures and regions around the world. If you come upon terraces cascading down a hillside or a mountain their beauty will entice you to stop and have a look.
