and ending in the area of Al-muflehi

Despite the
small area of the plateau relatively
except that they contain the most
important sites and large villages in
Yafea, as they represent more sites rise
in Yafea including Thamar Mountain,
which rise up to about 6900 feet above
sea level, and characterized by a
climate of that region cold winters and
moderate summers and low rainfall the
annual comparison region following.
Secondly
_ the central mountainous area : They

narrow spaces in the aspects of the
valleys, Implants in which coffee,

activity and population density in the
upland areas adjacent to the plateau and
along the waterway separating the level
of water heading west towards Yaher
valley and Waten and heading east
towards Sabah and Salab of
