Built in the 17th century, the fort features a massive circular tower, fascinating museum exhibits, traditional architecture, and panoramic views over Nizwa's old town, date plantations, and surrounding mountains.
  2. Nizwa Souq
    1h
    Just beside the fort lies the famous Nizwa Souq, one of Oman's oldest traditional markets. Browse stalls selling silver jeelry, handcrafted pottery, khanjars (traditional Omani daggers), spices, dates, frankincense, textiles, and lowcal handicrafts. The souq also offers an authentic glimpse into everyday Omani life.
  3. Birkat Al Mouz

    Continue to the picturesque village of Birkat Al Mouz, nestled at the foot of Jebel Akhdar. Wander among beautifully preserved mud-brick houses, lush date palm plantations, and peaceful pathways while learning about the area's traditional way of life.
  4. Aflaj Irrigation Systems of Oman
    30m
    Visit the historic Al Kattmyn Falaj, one of Oman's ancient irrigation systems recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This remarkable engineering masterpiece has distributed fresh mountain water to farms and villages for hundreds of years and continues to support local agriculture today.
  5. Jebel Akhdar
    2h
    Board your comfortable 4WD vehicle as you ascend into the spectacular Hajar Mountains. Rising over 2,000 meters above sea level, Jebel Akhdar—meaning "The Green Mountain"—is famous for its cool climate, dramatic cliffs, deep canyons, terraced farms, pomegranate orchards, walnut trees, apricot plantations, and fragrant Damask rose gardens that bloom each spring.

    Enjoy a leisurely walk through the mountain villages while taking in some of the most breathtaking scenery in Oman.
