Windmills of the Republic of Yemen


Aden (#ye1)

(12.85314,45.0199)
tower mill :

There are a number of windmills used for pumping found in the saltworks of Aden, very similar to those in Tripani, Sicily, where the saltwork owners originated from. Due to the similarity of all the mills to each other, it is hard to accurately assign photos of them to individual mills.

tower mill :

I'm assuming this is a mock mill due to its poor attempt at sails, and its location away from the salt pans
