This rock house is clearly inhabited because in front of the house, there is washing hanging on a washing line in what looks like the front yard.
这座石屋明显有人居住,因为在屋前一块看起来像是前庭的地方有一根晾衣绳,上面挂着洗好的衣服。
Then, above the painted front of the house, they've built a chimney.
然后,在屋子粉刷一侧的上方,他们建了一个烟囱。
It's quite possible that at the back of this same hill there's another door - or the front of another house, perhaps.

Then, in between, there's a relatively flat plain.

And then there's a small town.

It looks like a town because there are a lot of white houses and each one is quite close to the next building.

This must be a hot country because the sky is blue and there isn't much vegetation.
