Nizwa attractions
 
Nizwa is one of the oldest cities in Oman and it was once a center of trade, religion, education and art. Its Jama (grand mosque) was formerly a center for Islamic learning. Nizwa acquired its importance because it has been an important meeting point at the base of the Western Hajar Mountains. Set amid a verdant spread of date palms, it is strategically located at the crossroads of routes linking the interior with Muscat and the lower reaches of Dhofar thus serving as the link for a large part of the country. Today, Nizwa is a diverse prosperous place with numerous agricultural, historical and recreational aspects. Nizwa is a center for date growing and is the market place for the area.

Salalah attractions
 
The green mountains and beautiful coast can only do so much. Nature did its part. Isn’t time that we did something too? Governments job is to provide the infrastructure the city needs. It’s the private sectors and investors turn. Restaurants, malls, parks, worldwide standard hotels ( 10 year old apartment building don’t count for tourist accommodation nor does renting ur house during the season!).
