Hi @DachriMed

This looks interesting. Tell us more about this place.

How is it accessed? And is there people living there?

Thanks

Hello @DachriMed,

Thank you for sharing this amazing photo with us, the place looks incredible! Is there a cave inside the rocky mountain? 

The place you've shared reminds me the Todgha Gorges in Morocco, which I visited few years ago. 🙂

PS: I edited your photo because it had your e-mail address on it, and according to the rules of Connect, such things are not acceptable. Furthermore, I removed the Arabic language label from your post as it doesn't contain such. Only posts written in a specific language should have the corresponding label. You can find more information in this article: How do I find posts in my preferred language?

Hi @DachriMed, 

That's pretty cool! Reminds me a bit of Petra in Jordan. 

@BorrisS wow your photo from Morocco is really amazing. I didn't know it had such great canyons.
