Reviewed By PNEPete - Leyland, United Kingdom
Visited as part of a tour from cruise ship, It was absolutely stunning, the architecture, chandeliers, carpet, etc etc. Well worth a visit although for non muslims you cannot visit during prayer times. Ladies must be appropriately dressed, with hair/head covered, shoulders and arms to the handsand legs covered to the feet. Men generally wear normal casual wear, shoes must be removed before entering the Mosque rooms. Definitely a must to visit just to admire the sheer splendour inside and out.

A quiet spot, 20KM off the main road, this picnic location has some breathtaking views. There's a simple restaurant, several park benches, and toilets. It's possible to walk over the top of the dam for a part of the distance and get views of the valleys below. Excellent choice for a weekend lunch picnic.

Khasab fort opposite the main harbor is a great way of spending a couple of hours. Learning about the local culture, history of khasab/Oman the finding of oil and how it changed the landscape and lives of the Arabic nations The fort itself goes back to Portuguese occupation and shows Defence mechanisms and then how the locals lived and survived. A great insight to local history.

One of the most beautiful beaches I've ever seen. White sand, turquoise water, coconut trees and mountain view. I was very lucky to have this beach completely to my own for a few hours- no other tourists around.
7. Al Alam Palace

Reviewed By mohsina327 - Muscat, Oman
Al Alam Palace is not residential palace. It is used to recieve dignitories and other official functions. It is opposite National Museum. One can walk up to the gate. There is lot of space in front of the gate and manicured gardens on the front right of the gate. It's a hood photo opportunity for tourists. For residents it's a nice place to spend time with kids once in a while. Jalali and Mirani forts are on the either side of it.
