Top 6 Points of Interest & Landmarks in Muscat Governorate, Oman

May 6, 2022 Margarita Chappel

The Omani city of Muscat is predominantly populated by Islamic Arabs, though it also has a sizable, non-resident Indian population, further rounded out by American, British and Dutch citizens. Muscat is a tolerant and progressive city, where English speakers are relatively common. Arrange fares beforehand if seeing the city by taxi. To explore further, consider renting a car. Don't miss the imposing Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque, atmospheric Old Muttrah Souk, Al Alam Royal Palace or Al Jalali Fort.

Mohammed Al Ameen Mosque

Reviewed By ZB262

This mosque is visible from a distant as you drive into Muscat from the airport. It is absolutely beautiful with the white marble finish and amzing 3 large dome. And the Chanderliers inside the main prayer room are amzing. the imam who led the Jum'aah prayer was not too bad either.

Corniche

Reviewed By mohsina327 - Muscat, Oman

Probably the best part of Muscat city. The place has old world charm. The view of the harbour is amazing particularly at night. Nearby is Muttrah souq and Muttrah Fort. One csn walk up to riyam park and kalbuh park.

Bimmah Sinkhole

Reviewed By alstondm - Mumbai, India

A natural wonder to be seen something differnt from just seas and mountains. It's around 4 floors below ground level one comes to blue water, its lovely to swim in also in one corner due to its depth one can even dive with caution. For those who dont like to get wet can sit on the rocks with their legs in water and fish will come nibbling on ones legs. The park above has a small play area for little kids. This place is all perfect for a lovely day picnic.
