Shibam (Arabic: شِبَام) (often referred to as Shibam Hadhramaut) is a town in Yemen. With about 7,000 inhabitants, it is the seat of the Shibam District in the Hadhramaut Governorate. It is famous for its mudbrick-made high-rise buildings.
The first known inscription about the city dates from the 3rd century AD. It was the capital of the Hadramawt Kingdom.
The town is located in the central-western area of Hadhramaut Governorate, in the Ramlat al-Sab`atayn desert. Its main road links Sana'a and other cities of western Yemen to the far eastern territories. Nearest towns are Seiyun, seat of an airport, and Tarim, both in the east. Another road, departing from the village of Alajlanya, in the west; links Shibam to Al Mukalla, governorate's capital, located by the Indian Ocean.
Shibam, which is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site, owes its fame to its distinct architecture.The houses of Shibam are all made out of mud brick and about 500 of them are tower blocks, which rise 5 to 11 stories high, with each floor having one or two rooms. This architectural style was used in order to protect residents from Bedouin attacks. While Shibam has been in existence for an estimated 1,700 years, most of the city's houses originate from the 16th century. Many, though, have been rebuilt numerous times in the last few centuries.

John Birks "Dizzy" Gillespie (/ɡᵻˈlɛspi/; October 21, 1917 – January 6, 1993) was an American jazz trumpeter, bandleader, composer and occasional singer.
AllMusic's Scott Yanow wrote, "Dizzy Gillespie's contributions to jazz were huge. One of the greatest jazz trumpeters of all time (some would say the best), Gillespie was such a complex player that his contemporaries ended up copying Miles Davis and Fats Navarro instead, and it was not until Jon Faddis's emergence in the 1970s that Dizzy's style was successfully recreated [...] Arguably Gillespie is remembered, by both critics and fans alike, as one of the greatest jazz trumpeters of all time."
Gillespie was a trumpet virtuoso and improviser, building on the virtuoso style of Roy Eldridge but adding layers of harmonic complexity previously unheard in jazz. His beret and horn-rimmed spectacles, his scat singing, his bent horn, pouched cheeks and his light-hearted personality were essential in popularizing bebop.
The Mud Skyscrapers of Shibam, the Manhattan of the Desert Shibam, in the desert of central Yemen, is home to about 7,000 people. Located at the crossroads of Asia, Africa, and Europe, the small town was once a stopping point for traders traveling along the frankincense and spice routes. The walled city of “skyscrapers” was built on a hill in the 1530s after a mighty flood destroyed much of the existing settlement. Its five hundred huddled buildings, ranging from five to eleven stories high, are the tallest mud buildings in the world and provided protection against the elements and deterred potential attackers. They continue to shelter the residents of Shibam
Surrounded by a fortified wall, the 16th-century city of Shibam is one of the oldest and best examples of urban planning based on the principle of vertical construction. Its impressive tower-like structures rise out of the cliff and have given the city the nickname of 'the Manhattan of the desert'.

Πάνω σε ένα υπερυψωμένο πλάτωμα ξεπετάγονται 500 περίπου πανύψηλα σπίτια φτιαγμένα από λάσπη και άχυρο. Αυτές οι χωμάτινες πολυκατοικίες είναι και η αιτία που πολλοί ονομάζουν το Shibam « Μανχάταν της ερήμου " . Μοναδική πόλη !!!
Shibam (Arabic: شبام) is a town in Hadramawt, Yemen with about 7,000 inhabitants. It has been the capital of the Hadramawt Kingdom for several periods of time. (There is also a town by the same name outside Yemen's capital of Sana'a. To avoid confusion, the town of this article is therefore often referred to as Shibam Hadhramaut.) Shibam owes its fame to its distinct architecture, which now is on UNESCOs programme to safeguard the human cultural heritage. The houses of Shibam are all made out of mud bricks, but about 500 of them are tower houses, which rise 5 to 11 stories high,[1] with each floor being an apartment occupied by a single family.[2] This technique of building was implemented in order to protect residents from Bedouin attacks. While Shibam has existed for around 2,000 years...
Shibam, la Manhattam del'Hadramaut http://www.docartis.com/pagina2/viaggiare_yemen.htm Le abitazioni di Shibam sono state edificate prevalentemente fra il XVI e il XIX sec. insieme a numerose moschee, palazzi e manufatti di interesse architettonico, tutti costruiti con mattoni di fango su fondazioni di pietra. I suoi 500 edifici di notevole altezza, molti di 7-8 piani fino ad un massimo di 30 metri, costruiti tutti in una piccolo rettangolo, di m.400 x m.500, sono così compatti e slanciati da rendere unica al mondo la visione di questa città. Di notevole fascino anche la visita all'interno della città con le strette viuzze e le piazze come quella dominata dal Palazzo del Sultano e quella della Moschea Al Game' con la bella siqaya monumentale. Shibām, ancora circondata da mura con bast...

Shibam, localiza-se em Hadramaut, Iémen. Foi declarada Património Mundial da Humanidade pela Unesco em 1982. [1] Shibam foi durante muito tempo a capital do Reino de Hadramaut, Iémen. A maior parte das construções são torres e edifícios elevados datados do século XVI, criando uma muralha, que serve de protecção contra ataques de tribos nómadas como os beduínos. Essas construções elevadas deram a Shibam, a mais antiga cidade de arranha céus do mundo, o título de "Manhattan do deserto", o mais antigo exemplo de planeamento urbano baseado no princípio da construção vertical

színes, magyarul beszélő, francia-angol ismeretterjesztő filmsorozat, 3x52 perc, 2000 Az Unesco támogatásával készült ismeretterjesztő filmsorozat az arab világ ismeretlen csodáit mutatja be: a jordániai Petrát, a lakatlan vörös kővárost, a marokkói Fezt és a jemeni Shibam romjait. A sorozat az ezeregyéjszaka világába kalauzol el bennünket. Az aktuális rész ismertetője: Bibliai tájakon és korokon át vezet az út a jordániai Petrába, e különös romvárosba, melynek létezéséről öt évszázadon keresztül csak a beduinok tudtak. A svájci John Burckhard fedezte fel újra a nagyvilág számára, 1812-ben. Amióta Petra a világörökség része, az UNESCO és a jordán kormány közösen próbálják megvédeni ezt az egyedi csodát, nehogy elnyelje a sivatag, s csupán egy legenda maradjon belőle az utókornak...
