Oman
Oman is an ancient land of frankincense and myrrh and possesses some of the most dramatic and spectacular scenery in Arabia. Bordered by the Arabian Gulf to the east and the Indian Ocean to the south, its scenery takes in endless desert sands, the rugged Hajar Mountains, wadis, hot springs, southern hills greened by the monsoon and a magnificent coastline fringed with sandy beaches. Add this to a wealth of historical sites, forts perched on rocky hilltops, intriguing souks plus the warmth and hospitality of the people, you will soon discover the magic of the legendary home of Sinbad.
Muscat, the capital, is a modern city of contrasts with sleek highways, alabaster villas, exotic souks, and cosmopolitan shopping centres. It is rich in tradition and offers many attractions for the visitor.
