Categories: Middle East & North Africa, Yemen, Arts & Culture, History, Photography

Yemeni Omar Barsawad [1] takes us on this photo tour of Seiyoun, the largest urban centre and capital of Wadi Hadhramout. “It's famous for its splendid, intricately built mud bricked houses; and its palm trees and wonderful souqs in narrow streets, where: frankincense, myrrh, antique silver and authentic Hadhramy souvenirs are sold,” he explains.
