Natural formations
Wadi Helo, as its name suggests, is a valley called sweet because its water is fresh, and the valley used to flow for several months, but now, due to climate change and lack of rain, the valley's water has dried up, which has forced residents to dig wells to extract groundwater for use in agriculture.
