Nizwa & Jabel Akhder (Sharing)

In the morning, we start our journey to the past through the Sumail Gap, which divides the Western and Easter Hajar Mountains. After this we head to the old capital of Oman, Nizwa, known for its silver Souq and the big round fort, built during the period of the Yoruba dynasty. After visiting the Souq and the Fort, Then we drive to BirkatAlMouz, a pretty oasis known for its sheer scenic value. Reach from there to the roof of Oman, the Saiq Plateau. A beautiful village which was only accessible by donkeys, for hundred of years. The view the over terraced gardens is very colorful. A variety of fruits like walnuts, pomegranates, apricot and lemon are grown here. There are many interesting walks in Wadi Bani Habib, Shrejaya and Aqur where the weather is cool and dry. Return to Muscat in the evening.
