Water Mill

The stone water mill sits at the base of the Ras El Maa spring, identifiable by the heavy, weathered wooden chute that channels the mountain water directly onto its turning wheel. For generations, local farmers brought their wheat and barley here to be ground into flour using the steady, icy force of the stream. Ali, who maintained the mill for decades, once kept a small ledge nearby covered in fresh mint, cooling his tea in the overflow of the channel after the grinding stopped.
