Qala Windmill

Qala Windmill

The photograph shows a traditional stone windmill with a cylindrical limestone tower rising above low rubble walls and surrounding vegetation. The wooden sails are clearly visible, radiating from the central cap and supported by a network of wooden frames and tensioning ropes. Prickly‑pear plants grow in the foreground, while the open sky forms a plain backdrop that emphasises the height and structure of the mill.
