The Cisterns of Tawila, also known as the Tawila Tanks, are a historic series of reservoirs located in Aden, Yemen. Dating back to ancient times, these impressive structures were ingeniously designed to capture and store rainwater in the arid region. The cisterns are carved into the rock and have a combined capacity of millions of gallons, showcasing advanced engineering skills from the past. They not only provided a crucial water supply for the city but also helped manage seasonal floods.
