Definitons

  • Hadhramaut: The historical region in Eastern Yemen where the "death-defying" desert climate forced builders to become master vertical engineers.
  • Wadi: A dry riverbed that stays parched most of the year but transforms into a destructive, building-melting sea during monsoon floods.
