In the desert landscape of northeastern Saudia Arabia you will find Qasr al-Farid aka 'The Lonely Castle.' Built in the first century A.D. the Lonely Castle rises four stories; an unfinished tomb carved out of a solitary sandstone outcrop. Because the tomb was never completed, we can see how the façade was chiseled from the top, down.
