شوف (arabic) shoof: look! see! (english)
There are many old forts dotted all over Oman; please take time out of your holiday to visit at least one. You can SEE this view from the lovely Nakhel Fort, just an hour away from Muscat and I particularly love it since it takes in three iconic images of Oman; a fort, mountains and an oasis. This fort has recently re-opened after being closed for years for renovations.
The Sultanate of Oman is a truly wonderful country, full of beautiful places to visit and interesting things to see. Some tourists are content to spend their holidays within the confines of their luxurious Arabian styled 4 star hotels, and there is nothing wrong with that. However if you get yourself out there you might find something unusual, quirky or bizarre to photograph and as a bonus, any Omanis you encounter will bowl you over with their kindness and hospitality.
I have travelled extensively throughout the Sultanate and not seen half of all there is to see. Will you follow me and شوف Oman?
