==Description of the village== thumb|left|300px|Sentob old village ruins Sentob is a village with structures built on natural stone fenced by traditional stone walls. Going up the Sentob river valley – locally known as Kadvan valley - passing along scattered outbuildings, cemeteries, abandoned houses and mosques built of flat stones, a rocky outcrop with the hilltop ruins of the old village is reached. As with most of the villages in the Nuratau mountains, Sentob previously existed as a small stone village tucked away on an unprepossessing plateau primarily for safety. This spot was largely abandoned, and even those who later moved back elected to live at lower elevations in more modern structures.
