About Muskat

Muscat, Omans hovedstad, strekker seg mellom skrofne fjell og Omanbukta, med en stor moské, gamle fort, souker og en elegant strandpromenade.

Sultan Qaboos-moskeen er byens paradestykke, med en enorm bønnehall, et gigantisk håndvevd teppe og en krystall-lysekrone, midt i marmorgårdsrom. I gamle Muscat flankeres det fargerike Al Alam-palasset av fortene Jalali og Mirani fra portugisisk tid, plassert på klipper over havnen.

Top-ranked sights in Muskat: Wahiba Sands (Sharqiyah Sands), Wadi Bani Khalid, Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque.
