Things to do and sites to see in Oman.
Muscat
Matrah Souq
Fish market at Matrah
The Corniche – in the evenings is beautiful with colourful lights

Riham Park
Across from Alreyam Park is a beautiful look out point, (small hill) great to take pictures from, especially of the icon that’s featured in most adverts of Muscat/ Oman.
The Grand Mosque is absolutely free, and a must see. Remember to carry a scarf and wear long sleeves.
Beaches, especially in Shatti Qurum are beautiful. There are numerous coffee shops and sheesha places there with spectacular views of the ocean.
