Hadiboh is the main city of Socotra. It’s the only place you’ll find a hotel, there’s just one bank machine (which was broken when we were there so we all needed to queue up at the Western Union instead) and friendly goats roam the streets.
Because of the unrest with the mainland in Yemen, the city unfortunately doesn’t receive any refuse collection, which means that the streets are covered in rubbish waste. It’s definitely a cultural experience strolling through the town of Hadiboh, it’s very different to most cities you’ll visit. But, despite unattractiveness of the city, there’s still beauty to be found in Hadibo. I was mesmerised by the beautiful doors, and we passed by the man who creates these masterpieces on a short tour of the town.
In our world of today we see some great infrastructures around us. If we look around us we do find strange place too, made by humans only with least help of machines those are available today. There are places you find strange even to visit as it is very difficult to reach there but people are living there for ages now. Have a look!
