- Mutrah Souq - That’s an ideal place if you want to have a look at the ordinary life of Oman. Just go along the rows, look for the items, bargain and have fun as here you can find everything starting from spices finishing traditional rugs, vases or just souvenirs.
- Al Alam Palace - Residence of Sultan Qaboos. From both sides the forts surround the palace, so you’ll likely enjoy the magnificent scenery. Located in the center of the city, it always attracts a lot of visitors and, although, people are not allowed to go in, they can easily go around and take cool photos.
- Bait Al Zubair - The museum has an extensive collection of ancient weapons, including khanjar, household equipments, and costumes (most of which derive from the owner’s private collection). Outside the museum is a full-scale Omani village and souk.[2]
