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.
