By the roadside in this low-rise farming village, the extensive, partly crenellated mud-walled citadel here is less impressive than Belqays – but has more arches and domes and picturesquely collapsing mud buildings. It appears to be totally ignored by travellers, but offers some intriguingly framed views for sunset photos.
