Details
Muscat is the capital and largest city of Oman, located along the southeastern coast of the Arabian Peninsula, where the rugged Hajar Mountains meet the serene waters of the Gulf of Oman. Known for its distinctive blend of traditional Arab culture and modern development, Muscat is a city of striking contrasts — from ancient forts and bustling souks to luxurious resorts and contemporary architecture.
The city's rich history dates back thousands of years, once serving as a key trading port linking the East and West. Today, visitors can explore heritage landmarks like the Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque, the Royal Opera House, and the historic Mutrah Souq, where the scent of frankincense and spices lingers in the air.
Muscat is also known for its clean streets, low skyline, and strict building codes that preserve its authentic Arabian character. Surrounded by natural beauty, the city offers easy access to pristine beaches, desert landscapes, and dramatic mountain scenery, making it a gateway for outdoor adventures.
Peaceful, elegant, and welcoming, Muscat reflects the spirit of Omani hospitality and tradition while embracing the future with quiet confidence.
