Above all, this is an amazing modern mosque, worthy of its name, with a capacity of 20,000 worshippers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The solemn main prayer hall has a huge chandelier, delicate blue mosaic tiles, and the world\u2019s second-largest hand-made Iranian rug it has been knitted by 600 women for four years. The grounds of the mosque are a peaceful place to stroll and admire the harmonious lines and arches of various buildings and beautiful gardens. It is definitely one of the<a href=\"https:\/\/pakistantourntravel.com\/2021\/11\/24\/best-places-to-visit-in-oman\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> <strong>best attractions in Muscat<\/strong><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-16500\" src=\"https:\/\/pakistantourntravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Sultan-Qaboos-Grand-Mosque-Muscat.jpg\" alt=\"Best Places To Visit In Oman: Tourist Sites in Oman \" width=\"500\" height=\"350\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pakistantourntravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Sultan-Qaboos-Grand-Mosque-Muscat.jpg 500w, https:\/\/pakistantourntravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Sultan-Qaboos-Grand-Mosque-Muscat-300x210.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">During our visit, a rare shower turned the marble floor into a reflecting pool. Women need to cover their hair, arms, and legs when visiting the mosque. Men should wear long pants. The <strong>Grand Mosque<\/strong> is open to non-Muslim visitors from 8:30 am to 11 am every day, except Friday. There is no entrance fee.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Don\u2019t worry about the accommodation, as Beach Bay Hotel has comfortable rooms and a hearty breakfast. It is only a two-minute walk from <strong>Shatti Al Qurum<\/strong> in the <strong>Diplomatic District of Musca<\/strong>t. You can use the adjacent Grand Hyatt swimming pool for a small fee.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Mutrah_Corniche_Muscat\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #339966;\"><em><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Mutrah Corniche, Muscat\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/em><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before sunset, cross the Mutrah Corniche from Muscat. Walk with the locals along the beautiful waterfront, where whitewashed buildings, mosques behind rugged mountains, and forts glow golden at dusk. Nearby, you can shop in the narrow alleys of <strong>Muttrah Souq<\/strong>, one of the oldest markets in Oman and one of Muscat\u2019s top tourist attractions.<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-16498\" src=\"https:\/\/pakistantourntravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Mutrah-.jpg\" alt=\"Best Places To Visit In Oman: Tourist Sites in Oman \" width=\"500\" height=\"350\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pakistantourntravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Mutrah-.jpg 500w, https:\/\/pakistantourntravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Mutrah--300x210.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Browse the stalls to buy frankincense and myrrh, ceramic incense burners, silver jewelry, cashmere, headscarves, lamps, exquisite camels, and more. One of the best places to say at is the Beach Bay Hotel, but Muttrah Hotel is only a few steps away from <strong>Muttrah Corniche<\/strong>, and it is cheaper (but slightly basic).<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Jibrin_Castle\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #339966;\"><em><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Jibrin Castle<\/strong><\/span><\/em><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">From Muscat, it is recommended that you travel inland to the Nizwa region, where you can explore fortresses, mountains, and ancient villages. <strong>Jibrin Castle<\/strong> (also known as Jibreen Fort) dates back to 1675 and looks like a sandcastle in an oasis of palm trees.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can wander through the labyrinth-like room and see the defensive technology used as a killing hole, and the cracks in the floor used to pour boiling jujube oil on the enemy. The entrance to Jibrin Castle is 500 BC. Open from 9 am to 4 pm from Saturday to Thursday, and from 8 am to 11 am on Friday.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-16496\" src=\"https:\/\/pakistantourntravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Jubrin.jpg\" alt=\"Best Places To Visit In Oman: Tourist Sites in Oman \" width=\"500\" height=\"350\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pakistantourntravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Jubrin.jpg 500w, https:\/\/pakistantourntravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Jubrin-300x210.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here you can stay at <strong>Nizwa<\/strong> is a good base.

You can also watch women making handicrafts and baking bread over an open fire. The killing slot can also be found here. The entrance fee to<strong> Nizwa Castle<\/strong> is 5 OMR. Opening hours are from 8 am to 8 pm (Friday from 8 am to 11:30 am and 1:30 pm to 8 pm).<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Jebel_Akhdar\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #339966;\"><em><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Jebel Akhdar<\/strong><\/span><\/em><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By <strong>Jebel Akhdar<\/strong>, it means green mountain, but you may wonder why its burnt gray and orange sides climb, except for some dry thorny bushes, it is barren.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Green represents the Siq plateau village at an altitude of 2,000 meters, where heavy rain has allowed pomegranates, grapes, peaches, apricots, and roses to grow.

In case, you are confused about your accommodation, then you can live in Al Karam Hotel Apartments, a 15-minute drive from the foot of <em><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Birkat Al Mouz<\/strong><\/span><\/em>.
