Hili Oasis and Hili Tower

On yesterday's morning walk, we decided to check out the Hili Tower and Hili Oasis....sites near our flat.  The Hili Oasis is much larger than I expected.  The paths went in all directions and we could have walked for quite a while!  There are some ruins inside that are in the process of being restored.  At the entrance to the oasis is the Hili Tower, made of mud brick and straw.  It has been restored and was not open when we went.
