You arrive before the valley opens fully—sandstone cliffs tower like carved pages, the road slipping between palm clusters and low scrub. A private vehicle eases into a shaded pullout; the guide points toward a stream threaded through the canyon floor and the ruins scored into rock faces. The air smells faintly of date palms and tea.
