Muttrah is a historic town and the former commercial center of Muscat. To this day, there is a large port and a famous market (souq) and of course a large fortress. The famous Corniche promenade leads here, leading to the administrative center of Old Muscat

View of Muttrah

The best starting point for a tour of Muttrah is the waterfront at the harbor. There is a large square where you can park for free (unlike the paid promenade in the city). In addition, there is a beautiful panoramic view of the entire city

Fishing in the harbor

Right next to the no fishing sign, dozens of men catch one fish after another. How on a treadmill

Evening Muttrah

If you don't get lost in the souk, it's still worth spending some time on the promenade and enjoying the evening atmosphere of the city
