2. Al Jabal Al Akhdar is known for its Mediterranean climate.
Temperatures drop during winter to below zero Celsius, with
snow falling at times, and rise in summer to 22 degrees Celsius.
Due to its location and unique weather, the Green Mountain
produces a variety of fruits, such as
apricots, plums, figs, grapes, apples and pears, as well as
almonds, walnuts and saffron. The pomegranate that grows here
is classified among the finest of its kind in the world.
Spread across the mountain are many Omani villages. Villagers
have dug terraces in some parts of the mountain for growing
crops.
3. Set amid a verdant spread of date palms Nizwa Castle is a
powerful reminder of the town of Nizwa's invincibility through
turbulent periods in Oman's long history. The town of Nizwa
has a strategic location at the crossroads of vital caravan routes
linking interior, Muscat and Dhofar regions. Nizwa was
declared the capital of Oman in the 17th century during the
reign of Imam Sultan Bin Saif Al-Ya'arubi, who built and used
the castle as his headquarters.
The most striking feature of the castle is the central tower–a
colossal 150-feet-diameter circular tower soaring 115 feet
above the rest of fortification, complete with
battlements, turrets, secret shafts, false doors and wells.
4. The Wadi is 76 Km from Qurayyat–Muscat. The road to the wadi
dips as it crosses the bed of the ravine and rises steeply on the
other side where the houses of Tiwi cling to the cliffs. At the
mouth of the wadi is a single beach dotted with fishing boats.
Water flows all year round. The wadi runs through a narrow
gorge with date plantations, restful pools and lush vegetation.
Oleander bushes attract butterflies and the singing of the birds is
delightful.
5. Ash-Sharqiyah Sands (also known as Wahiba Sands) offer the
romantic visitor desert in the accepted sense of the word.
Rolling sand dunes, varying from deep red to a rich honey
colour sands stretching as far as the eye can see.
The Sands stretch for 180 Km from north to south and 80 Km
from east to west. They consist of grains of various eroded
rocks and marine sediments blown into the area.
Sand driving requires skill, boards for digging out and a long
tow rope in case one gets stuck. It is recommended thus to
take one of the organised tours from Muscat which are led by
knowledgeable guides.
6. We are one nation, one blood,
In times of sorrow, we calm each other,
In moments of horror,we cuddle together,
When we slip on the way, we hold each other,
When terror strikes, we defend together,
We are one nation, one blood.
We shed it for each other.
