Places to Visit in Muscat
Throughout our two-week stay, we deliberately chose the most attractive places with natural beauty and architectural wonders. Among them, Mutrah took first place.I had a plan for Oman, especially for Salalah, as I saw a few YouTube videos about Salalah during Khareef (monsoon season). Oman is a familiar place for Bangladeshis. We stayed on the university campus for eight days, though each morning we used to get out for a specific place of favored tourist destination. Between our sightseeing in Muscat and the nearby areas with tourist attractions, we rarely missed the affinity of nature in the truly natural environment.

The port of Muscat is guarded by two magnificent forts: Al-Jalali Fort on the east and Al-Mirani Fort on the west. These forts, perched high on the rocks, overlook the sparkling blue waters of the Gulf of Oman.
In the past, their primary purpose was to protect the port of Muscat.
CLICK HERE TO FIND THINGS YOU NEED MOST
Al Jalali Fort, or Mutrah Fort, also known as Ash Sharqiya Fort, was constructed by the Portuguese in the 1580s, atop an earlier Omani fortress, to safeguard the harbor after Muscat had been twice attacked and sacked by Ottoman forces. However, the fort was eventually seized by Omani forces in 1650, and after the Civil War ended in 1747, it underwent extensive reconstruction.

Occasionally, Al-Jalali functioned as a sanctuary or a detention centre for a royal family member. Throughout the 20th century, it operated as Oman’s primary penitentiary until its role ceased in the 1970s. In 1983, Fort Al-Jalali underwent restoration and was repurposed as an exclusive museum showcasing Omani cultural heritage, open only to esteemed guests visiting the nation.

Access to this fortress is only granted with a permit. To apply, visit the Ministry of National Heritage’s contact page on their website.
Fort Al-Jalali was known as the third defensive structure along the Muscat shoreline, positioned just north of the main harbor and equipped with sufficient artillery to repel potential invaders.
CLICK HERE TO FIND EXCLUSIVE HOME DECOR
The fortress boasts a captivating feature: a sizable circular tower that served as a final line of defense. Within its walls, visitors can explore an educational yet slightly dull display showcasing the region’s geography and ecosystem. However, the true gem of the fort lies in the replica of two structures native to the Musandam Peninsula. The first is Bait al-Qufl, also known as the House of Locks. During the summer months, the nearby agricultural families sought refuge in these partially buried stone structures to safeguard their valuable possessions while they relocated to the seaside.

Naturally, reaching the location involves a steep ascent. Visitors who are not interested in history or archaeology may notice something missing upon arrival: only remnants of ancient weaponry and a contemporary French Hotchkiss cannon perched on battlements and turrets. Although we did not have much time to enter the central tower, the vistas from its summit were undeniably breathtaking.

There are quite a few beaches in Mutrah, though they are unlike typical beaches and are located near arid land with hard rock formations. The waves we found were quiet, with arid mountains all around them, especially at Quantab Beach, which was surrounded by black rocks. Other beaches are Yiti Beach,Jebel Sifa Beach, and Kalbou Beach.

Al-Jalali Fort, Mutrah:
Al Alam Palace
This is the sultan’s primary residence, showcasing modern Islamic design, vibrant gardens, and the picturesque Mutrah Harbor. Known as the Flag Palace, it serves as the ceremonial home of Sultan Qaboos and is situated at the core of the historic Old Muscat. Al Alam Palace serves as the official residence of the Sultan of Oman and is used for ceremonial purposes. It is where formal events, including the reception of international guests and leaders, take place. In the early 1970s, the old official residence, Bait Al Alam, was demolished to make way for the construction of this new palace. However, Sultan Qaboos tends to prefer his other residences in Al Seeb or Manah, as he rarely makes appearances at Al Alam Palace. Though the palace compound is not a vast area, the main palace building and its encircling buildings and installations are worth viewing against the background of a line of hillocks. An artistic combination of yellow and blue in an array of vast whites will remind you of a painting on an easel. Flowers are a common phenomenon anywhere in Oman, so everything is there for you to soothe your eyes with and spread beauty—a perfect blending of natural objects and habitation.

The entrance to the main building was prohibited for general visitors like us, though we did not encounter any problems seeing everything on the outer campus or taking snapshots of the main building and its installations.
