Spectacularly located and with houses built on rocks, Misfat seems to cling to the rocks of the date-tree covered mountain it sits on and has successfully done so for a long time.
The drive from Al Hamra to Misfat is nice in itself, with some great views of the Hajjar Mountains. As I drove up, the sun was on its way down, the sky was filled with dark grey clouds, and it looked like it could start raining any moment. Rays of sunlight were cutting through the thick layer of clouds, putting their bright spotlight on an ever changing area of the landscape. After parking in the new area of Misfat, I walked to where I had some great views of the old part, on the other side of the valley. From here, it was easy to see how the village is built right on top of the ridge of the mountain. It seems to float on top of the date plantations below. While I waited, rays of sun at times chose to fall on Misfat.
