• Nizwa Souk - Exploring the Nizwa Souq is one of the top things to do in Oman. It is one of the oldest markets in the country and you will find fruit, meat, sweets, pottery, souvenirs and antiques… There is a lot to discover as you stroll through in the middle of the locals. Below is my guide to help you plan your visit. - Nizwa Fort Oman - The fort in Nizwa dates from the 17th century, during the Al Ya’rubi dynasty, and was built on top of the ruins of a 9th-century castle. The massive structure has been nicely restored, with many rooms set up to look as they did when the fort was in use; you’ll see interesting historic tidbits offered in various displays in many rooms. Be sure to check out the prisoner room and read about the wartime use for the local dates, which were turned into a deadly weapon in the form of a cauldron of boiling date syrup. The views from the central tower are spectacular and worth the climb. - Jebel Akhdar - Jebel Akhdar, known as the Green Mountains and considered one of the most scenic areas in Oman and part of the Hajar Mountains. Jebel Akhdar is named for the green terraced gardens surrounding the village that lead to the Saiq Plateau. For hundreds of years, this place was accessible only to donkeys. Pomegranates, apricots, apples, olives and grapes, roses, peaches, walnuts and many other fruits. All grow here. Wade Bani Habib, Shrejah, Al Ain and Al Aqur all have interesting hiking trails. - Birkat Al Mouz Ruins - The product duration inclBirkat Al Mouz (a.k.a Birkat al Mawz), Oman, is one of the most famous villages in ruins in the Sultanate.
