Por Qué Visitar Muscat
The Frankincense Trail: Follow the ancient scent of frankincense from the aromatic stalls of Mutrah Souq to the Land of Frankincense Museum in Al-Balid. This prized resin, central to Omani culture and trade for millennia, perfumes the air and local shops.
Dramatic Natural Escapes: Discover why Oman is a hiker's paradise. Within easy reach are the emerald pools and cliff jumps of Wadi Shab, the stunning geological formation of Bimmah Sinkhole, and the less-visited serpentine canyons of Wadi Bani Khalid.
Unparalleled Arabian Hospitality: Encounter the famous Omani warmth. From being invited for dates and qahwa (Arabic coffee) in a shop to the genuine helpfulness of locals, the culture prioritizes generous, respectful welcome (known as 'Al Ta'aruf').
