Hey, guys! Ever wishing of going to
the Arab countries but didn’t managed to make a decision on which county to be
visited? Well, don’t worry because I have a suggestion for you. Let us go to
Oman!
In Oman, there are many fascinating
places to go and one of them is called Bahla Fort. It is one of four historic fortresses situated at the foot of the Djebel
Akhdar highlands in Oman. It was built in the 13th and 14th centuries, when the
oasis of Bahla was prosperous under the control of the Banu Nebhan tribe.

Next, they
have Muscat which is the capital of Oman. It sits on the Gulf of Oman,
surrounded by mountains and desert. With history going back to antiquity, it
mixes high-rises and upscale shopping malls with landmarks such as the
16th-century Portuguese forts, Mirani and Jalali, looming clifftop over Muscat
Harbor. Its modern, marble-clad Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque, with gleaming 50m
dome and prodigious Persian carpet, can accommodate 20,000 people.

Musandam is
also one of the must-go places in Oman. Often described as “The Norway of
Arabia”, the peninsula boasts a magical combination of mountain and maritime
landscapes, as the towering red-rock Hajar mountains fall precipitously into
the blue waters of the Arabian Gulf, creating a labyrinthine system of
steep-sided fjords (khors), cliffs and islands, most of them inaccessible
except by boat.
