Unlike its neighbors, Oman has no skyscrapers by law. Low whitewashed buildings are meant to preserve the country’s traditional appeal.
On both the Arabian Sea and the Oman Gulf, the Sultanate of Oman is a country of towering, barren mountains, undulating deserts, and a beautiful coastline. Nestled within that is the capital, Muscat, a city of excellent hotels, tantalizing cuisine and exceptional low-rise buildings, a rarity nowadays in Arab countries. Muscat must-sees include the Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque and the Muttrah Market.
South of Muscat, the port city of Sur is forever linked to the country’s maritime history, with defense towers and maritime museums that speak of its naval heritage.
The ancient city of Nizwa in the interior is also a former fort, its 17th-century castle a symbol of the region’s storied past as part of the region’s trade route. Leave room in your suitcase for silver souvenirs from Nizwa’s famous souk. Nearby, the Al Hajar and Jabal Akhdar mountain ranges – replete with their opulent spas and luxury resorts such as the Sahab Resort & Spa – are the highest in the country, their wild terrain ripe for hiking, climbing, and awe-inspiring vistas.
In Salalah in the sunny south, tourists visit mostly from June to September– the Khareef season – when the mountains are green and the waterfalls flow. The Salalah carnival brings people together for concerts, cultural events, and family fun.
And over in southeast Oman, the Wahiba Sands is an ocean of dunes and luxury five-star desert camps, offering Bedouin-style surroundings and extravagant amenities – perfect for a week of total isolation.
