Oman

Oman is a treasure of the Arabian Peninsula, where the local culture is proudly displayed in the intricate Islamic art of its mosques and in the everyday generosity of its citizens. Enticing dishes such as the sweet Omani halwa offer a glimpse into its rich culinary heritage.

Against a backdrop of stark deserts, verdant mountains, and clear waters, Oman's natural beauty is breathtaking. Beyond its landscapes, whispers of Oman's history seep through ancient forts and markets, while folklore comes alive in the tales of Sindbad the Sailor, hailing from the coastal town of Sohar.
