Ancient pond in northern Saudi Arabia fills with water after heavy rains

An ancient 1,300-year-old pond in northern Saudi Arabia, part of a sophisticated water system for pilgrim caravans, is now filled to a rare level after recent heavy rains. It's a brilliant example of Islamic engineering, a landmark on the historic Zubaida Trail, and a testament to human adaptation to the desert. https://www.arabnews.com/node/2640599/saudi-arabia
