The heritage village consists of a group of buildings stretched on the slope of the mountain, which is rocky and difficult terrain, and most of its houses consist of one or two floors, and the majority of the village's houses are partially dilapidated and abandoned. In general, the village appears homogeneous with the natural slope of the land, and a few modern buildings were observed adjacent to the cluster of heritage buildings. The juxtaposition of the buildings has resulted in an architectural fabric that reflects the local style of heritage village planning. The buildings were built using monolithic volcanic stones of varying sizes, shapes, and colors, and were installed on top of each other in an artistic way that required high professional expertise, and were shortened on the inside with a thick layer of mud and mud. It is noteworthy that the craftsmen were creative in dealing with the sloping rocky terrain. The roofs were built using tree trunks and branches, with mud and mud on top.
