Itinerary
The Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque is one of the only mosques in Oman that allows non-Muslim visitors. However, be aware of the rules when entering and exploring the area. The Mosque is embellished in beautiful, colorful mosaic patterns. There is no official number stating how many stones have been used, but it is sure an astounding sight. Take your time to walk the halls and study the handcrafted details of the mosque. It is truly a one-of-a-kind piece of art. But unfortunately, we will not be able to enter the mosque and watch it from inside since visiting hours are 8AM -11AM.
Souq Muttrah is an intriguing market maze where one can find an eclectic range of products: from rare, one-of-a-kind vintage artifacts to high-quality frankincense, gold and precious jewels to funky, hand-made purses. Afghan war hats, compasses from World War 2 and pashminas… you can enjoy quite a treasure hunt. If you collect furniture you are bound to find something, or if you’d rather a cool new hand-made bag or t-shirt, these can also be had.
Al Alam Palace is the ceremonial palace of His Majesty the Sultan. The palace is located in the heart of the Old Muscat, it is surrounded by the Al Jalali and Al Mirani forts.
