    Well of Barhout

    FugheitYemenPre-Islamic Antiquity

    The Well of Barhout, widely known across Arabia as the Well of Hell, is an imposing circular sinkhole plunged 112 meters deep into the desert plains of Al-Mahrah. Steeped in centuries of folklore, regional legends describe it as a natural prison created for disobedient jinn and a cavernous gateway to the underworld.
