Itinerary
First of all, we will go to the most beautiful mosque of our planet - the mosque of Sultan Qaboos. This is truly the greatest building leaves no one indifferent. Here is the world's largest handmade carpet, and the most expensive chandelier, made entirely of SWAROVSKI crystal, adorns the double dome.
Next, we will go to the Royal Opera House Muscat. We all know very well that such structures are mainly characteristic of the countries of the former USSR and Europe, but it was thanks to the idea of Sultan Qaboos, who studied in England, that the construction of this modern architectural masterpiece was realized in the Sultanate of Oman. If a tourist wants to enter the Royal Opera House, it is necessary to pay an entrance ticket separately
Muscat city beach
Before the last point along the route, we will climb to the observation deck, which is located on a hill and has the name "Fort Matrah". Having overcome only 200 steps, you will have a beautiful view of the entire seaport, and believe me, it's worth it.
Do you know that local Omanis drink besides Arabic coffee? Well, of course, this is the legendary tea "KARAK". If you have been to Oman and have not tasted this tea, consider that you have not been to Oman. We will stop at a non-touristic place specifically to treat you to this divine and unusual drink. After tea drinking, we are waiting for the old part of the city and the traditional Matrah market, which is famous for its Arabic flavors, spices, local clothes and, of course, the main place for selling incense.
Main fish market in Muscat
Well, at the end of our route, the majestic Al Alam Palace, with its unique architecture, peaceful square and incredible garden.

About Muscat
Muscat, Oman's capital, stretches between rugged mountains and the Gulf of Oman, with a grand mosque, old forts, souks and a graceful corniche.
The Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque is the city's showpiece, with a vast prayer hall, an enormous hand-woven carpet and a crystal chandelier, set among marble courtyards. In old Muscat, the colourful Al Alam Palace is flanked by the Portuguese-era forts of Jalali and Mirani, perched on rocks above the harbour.
Top-ranked sights in Muscat: Wahiba Sands (Sharqiyah Sands), Wadi Bani Khalid, Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque.
