Muscat Shopping Center
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
Muttrah Fortress
The biggest landmark and monument of the city is the fortress
Harbor view
Even the view of the harbor has its charm in the early evening
Fishing in the harbor
Right next to the no fishing sign, dozens of men catch one fish after another. How on a treadmill
Evening Shawarma
In the early evening, the gardens on the promenade are full and most order Shawarma (kebabs) and fresh juices.
Old Muttrah Souq
The Souq in Muttrah is considered one of the oldest in the entire Arab world. You will find here, of course, spices, gold, but also the classic Omani daggers Khanjar
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
