About Nizwa
Nizwa is an old oasis town at the foot of Oman's Hajar Mountains, once the capital of the country, with a great round fort and a famous livestock market.
Nizwa stands in an oasis of date palms in the interior of Oman, where the Hajar Mountains meet the desert plain, and was once the capital of the country and a centre of learning and religion. The massive Nizwa Fort, built in the 17th century, has a tall round tower, and from its roof there is a view across the palms and the mountains. Beside it lies the souk, where silver daggers, pottery, halwa and dates are sold.
