Beehive Houses






Some villages near Hama have some interesting housing structure, called beehive house. The tour book that I have mentioned that some local people still live in this egg-shape clay houses. When I was in Hama, I managed to get to Sarouj to see them. It seems like most people live in modern houses now and use the beehive houses as storage or chicken coops. On the way back to Hama, we visited one Bedouin family. Even though they live in tents, they do have the satellite.
