Badada village

The village of Al-Badada is located on the top of a high mountain surrounded by abysmal valleys, and it is one of the villages of Daws Bani Minhab and Baltafil, bordered on the east by Bani Fahm and Baltafil, on the west by Bani Ali and Al-Ayash, on the south by Bani Luwi and Baltafil, and on the north by Al-Nima from Bani Fahm, and it occupies a distinct location similar to the marqab because of its high altitude and the difficulty in reaching it, as the village can only be reached from the north side, as its other three sides are rugged and characterized by the steep steepness of its abysmal valleys steep valleys. This geographical nature imposed the extension of urban activity in one direction, namely the northern direction, which represents the area of access to the heritage village and where modern construction has extended. What remains of the old village is a limited number of residential buildings, most of which are adjacent to each other and were built on the natural sloping ground. Most of the houses are one- or two-story buildings, and the majority of the village's houses are partially dilapidated and abandoned. The overall appearance of the village is homogeneous with the natural slope of the land. The juxtaposition of buildings has resulted in an architectural fabric that reflects the local style of heritage village planning. Its walls were built using stones stacked on top of each other in an artistic way that required a high level of professional expertise, and were reinforced on the inside with a thick layer of mud and mud. It is noteworthy that the craftsmen were creative in the formations of external facades and architectural openings through stone protrusions and the use of white-colored stone in simple decorative formations in a number of buildings. The roofs were built using tree trunks and a layer of tree branches, topped with mud and adobe, and their wooden windows are almost devoid of decorations or inscriptions
