About Mascate

Mascate, capital de Omã, entre montanhas escarpadas e o Golfo de Omã: grande mesquita, velhos fortes, souks e uma graciosa corniche.

A Grande Mesquita do Sultão Qaboos é a joia da cidade, com uma vasta sala de oração, um enorme tapete tecido à mão e um lustre de cristal, entre pátios de mármore. Na velha Mascate, o colorido Palácio de Al Alam é ladeado pelos fortes de Jalali e Mirani, da época portuguesa, empoleirados em rochas acima do porto.

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