Enter the fortress entrance, walk down the tunnel, and gradually enter the Bedouin world. In the dim light, a lifelike statue is hard to distinguish between true and false In a flash, people will have an illusion, as if they have crossed just visiting, and the Bedouin life scenes are presented one by one: men are chatting while smoking hookahs after a hard day. And women are cooking by a fire, as if whispering something, with happy smiles on their faces. In the distant market, there are all kinds of fabrics, spices and handicrafts.
