Muscat in Oman was the third destination on our cruise in the United Arab Emirates and Oman, as we were in February. There were many pictures of Muscat. In this post you can see a small part of them. Would you like to see them all, you can see them here, where you can also view them as a slide show. The total photo album from around the cruise and all the destinations you can see here. We arrived at. 8:00 in the morning, and had 2 days to explore the city. Muscat was the destination vessels I had been most excited because it was the only destination on the cruise, which was not part of the United Arab Emirates. I expected therefore also something anderledes.Noget of what I saw as a little difficult to be on the cruise was that we most places had such a short time, and constantly had a backstop hanging in the back of the head with when we last should be back on the boat. That was why I also very much to have a little more time in Muscat. Map of Muscat is the capital of Oman, and is located to the east of the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia and Yemen as neighbors. The city is surrounded by dramatic mountains and sandy beaches along the coast. Muscat is an ancient city, and has clearly been under both Arab and Islamic influences. The city - and the country for that matter, over the past 30 years undergone a huge transformation from being an underdeveloped country today to be a country with modern facilities such as universities, highways, supermarkets and especially in the tourism sector is a major development vessels happened. Muscat is the headquarters of Al-Busaid dynasty, if at the Sultan lives in a huge colorful palace in the city. Day 1 The first impression of Muscat was overwhelming. As the ship sailed, I went out on our balcony, and here there met me the most beautiful vision filled with colorful vessels contrasts - clear blue water; dramatic shiny almost black mountains and a city with practically all white buildings. It was almost as it cut the eyes, and I could not wait to get in and explore this city a little vessels closer. From a distance it seemed exactly as I had imagined the Arab world. We had agreed to go into Muscat together with our friends, their children, vessels in-law and grandchild in half a year. We took the shuttle vessels bus from the ship and out on the other side of the harbor, from which we could walk into the old town. The sun baked from a great blue sky as we moved towards the center. It was the hottest day we have experienced during the cruise. We walked along the water, and from there to admire the Sultan of Oman's enormous yacht, which was and was enthroned in the harbor. The yacht is the world's third largest yacht and is an impressive sight. Beach promenade in Muscat's old town is beautiful, and there is surprisingly quiet, even though it runs parallel along a major road. You feel determined not to be in a capital city. As we walked along the water, we could consider all the fine white buildings, vessels and the beautiful Blue Mosque, which is central in contrast to the white buildings around it. On the whole, the colors of the things that impressed in Muscat. So delicate and yet so striking and alluring. vessels After half an hour of walking we reached the Mutrah Souq, which is a huge market or bazaar, if you will. Here you could get everything between heaven and earth. Souq is, however, mainly specialized in antique silver and spices. Now I have tried to be at markets in many places, and I always felt it as a stressful and a little klaufobisk experience with all the merchants who more or less aggressively constantly addressing one or pulls in one. This was not the souq in Muscat. In the beginning at the entrance, we noticed a little, but then we could basically go in peace, and study the many small shops. I bought me some saffron home, and also had some really fine pasminatørklæder with me for a good price. After spending a few hours at souq, was thirst and hunger by joining. It poured though not exactly with eateries around here souq, and we had no real idea of where and in which direction we should move. We started to move another way down to the water when we thought that this might, however, be some restaurants. On our little alternative way, we passed over rocky peaks, up to
