About Maskat

Maskat, Omans Hauptstadt, liegt zwischen schroffen Bergen und dem Golf von Oman: große Moschee, alte Forts, Souks und anmutige Corniche.

In der Altstadt von Maskat wird der farbenfrohe Al-Alam-Palast von den Forts Jalali und Mirani aus portugiesischer Zeit flankiert, die auf Felsen über dem Hafen thronen.
