Nizwa is the largest city in the Ad Dakhiliyah Region in Oman and was the capital of Oman proper. Nizwa is about 140 km (1.5 hours) from Muscat. The population is estimated at around 700,000 people including the two areas of Burkat Al Mooz and Al Jabel Al Akhdar. Nizwa is one of the oldest cities in Oman and it was once a center of trade, religion, education and art. Its Jama (grand mosque) was formerly a center for Islamic learning. Nizwa acquired its importance because it has been an important meeting point at the base of the Western Hajar Mountains. Set amid a verdant spread of date palms, it is strategically located at the crossroads of routes linking the interior with Muscat and the lower reaches of Dhofar thus serving as the link for a large part of the country. Today, Nizwa is a diverse prosperous place with numerous agricultural, historical and recreational aspects. Nizwa is a center for date growing and is the market place for the area.
Today it is one of the most popular tourist attractions with its historical buildings and imposing fort. The Nizwa Fort stands as a vivid reminder of the important status that the city of Nizwa once held as the political and cultural capital of Oman

Muscat, de hoofdstad van Oman, ligt tussen ruige bergen en de Golf van Oman, met een grote moskee, oude forten, soeks en een sierlijke corniche.
De Sultan Qaboos Grote Moskee is het paradepaardje van de stad, met een enorme gebedszaal, een reusachtig met de hand geweven tapijt en een kristallen kroonluchter, te midden van marmeren binnenplaatsen. In het oude Muscat wordt het kleurrijke Al Alam-paleis geflankeerd door de forten Jalali en Mirani uit de Portugese tijd, die op rotsen boven de haven staan.
Top-ranked sights in Masqat: Wahiba Sands (Sharqiyah Sands), Wadi Bani Khalid, Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque.
