Sunset at Nizwa.Oman

The historic town of Nizwa, two hours from Muscat along a good highway, lies on a plain surrounded by a thick palm oasis and some of Oman’s highest mountains. Marked by a grand new double-arched gateway, the town is a natural access point to the historic sites of Bahla and Jabrin. Nizwa has become the second-biggest tourist destination in Oman.
