The Yemenis have always built their villages with possible assaults and sieges in mind. Kawkaban is a perfect example of their capabilities to build invincible towns.
A path leads all the way up and although there is a road now that can take you, it is strongly advisable to walk. The views are superb, but most importantly, you develop a real admiration for the brave people who built a village on top of this steep mountain. On my walk up, I saw a group of girls coming down. They were all covered in black veils, and I walked past them until they saluted me and I turned around. I was amazed to find that they had taken off their veils, they were laughing, started shouting things at me and making gestures of kissing. One of them asked me to come to them, but when I made a move in their direction, they started to run down.
