Let’s learn a bit more about Oman

Oman is a nation located on the Arabian Peninsula’s southeast coast, where the Persian Gulf and Arabian Sea meet. The Rub al-Khali, a sandy, treeless, and largely waterless region of the Arabian Peninsula, contains a large portion of the country’s interior. Despite being crossed by oil and gas pipelines today, the area is still inhabited by Bedouin nomads. The coastal areas are much friendlier than the desolate interior. Between the ocean and the interior mountains is Oman’s lush northern coastline. Muscat, the capital of the nation, is located on the northern coast.

The city is a port and a commercial hub that combines traditional and modern architecture and overlooks the Gulf of Oman. Oman has one of the most vibrant cultures in human history, and it exudes an exotic, distinctive, and very different vibe from the rest. Humanity is believed to have had roots here since 8,000 years ago, as evidenced by centuries-old human civilizational remnants that have been discovered. Additionally, Oman established itself as the first Arab state to be established on the Arabian Peninsula. Oman was once a kingdom that was placed in a place where it was surrounded by a landscape that served as a natural defense against invaders and was perched atop a plateau.

The numerous languages used in the nation, the forts and archaeological sites found along old trade routes, and customs like the distillation of rosewater are all examples of this heritage. The friendly and welcoming people of Oman still uphold the country’s traditional values of humility, kindness, and hospitality. They will extend an invitation to share a meal with guests or go out of their way to assist a lost traveler.
