00:51Erst auf auf meine Reise ist

00:53der Land capital, Muscat.

00:55Es ist zu einem

00:56von Oman's

00:57bekanntlich,

00:58die Sultan Qaboos

01:00Grand Mosque.

01:01Hier,

01:02ich besuche Sepidei,

01:03ein local tour guide.

01:05So Sepidei,

01:06das ist die Grand Mosque.

01:08Was ist die

01:09Signifikanz in Oman?

01:10In Oman.

01:11Actually,

01:12it was a gift

01:13from Sultan Qaboos

01:14to the nation

01:15and it was opened

01:16in 2001.

01:17So,

01:18the entire mosque

01:19can accommodate

01:20up to 20,000

01:21of worshipers.

01:23As we wander around,

01:24Sepidei explains

01:25how the mosque

01:26blends Islamic

01:27and Omani design.

01:28Featuring

01:29a 50-meter

01:30tall dome,

01:3190-meter

01:32minaret

01:33and an array

01:34of arches

01:35and courtyards.

01:36So here we are

01:37inside the Grand Mosque.

01:38It is overwhelming

01:39how huge it is.

01:40And this carpet

01:41is what you notice first.

01:42Exactly.

01:43This is the main highlight

01:45of the mosque.

01:46It was the biggest

01:47hand-woven

01:48one-piece carpet

01:49in the world.

01:50600 people,

01:51they've woven it

01:52in four years.

01:534,200 square meter

01:55and it's 21 town.

01:57The mosque is known

01:58for its open-door policy,

02:00allowing visitors

02:01to explore

02:02during set hours.

02:03It's one of Muscat's

02:04must-see landmarks

02:06and a highlight

02:07for anyone visiting

02:08the capital.

02:10Next up on my tour,

02:11it's time for a spot

02:12of shopping.

02:13We are heading

02:14to Mutra Souk,

02:15one of the oldest

02:16marketplaces

02:17in the world.

02:19The main thing

02:20I would recommend

02:21is the frankincense.

02:22Frankincense.

02:23Frankincense.

02:24They call it Loban,

02:25which is a souvenir

02:26of Oman.

02:27Frankincense comes

02:28from the sap

02:29of local Boswellia trees,

02:30which is steam-distilled

02:31to produce

02:32essential oil.

02:33It traditionally

02:34is burned as incense,

02:36but is also eaten

02:37for its medicinal benefits.

02:43As we travel further

02:44into the soup,

02:45we discover

02:46a whole range of goods

02:47on display,

02:48from cashmere scarves

02:49to traditional clothing

02:50and silver jewelry

02:51priced by weight.

02:55No trip to Oman is complete

02:57without sampling

02:58the local cuisine.

02:59And after a day

03:01spent exploring

03:02the city's most beautiful

03:03corners,

03:04we stop at Ramse restaurant,

03:06where a feast

03:07of delicious dishes awaits.

03:09Camel meat,

03:10which you should have

03:11with Omani bread

03:12and honey.

03:13You're going to try it.

03:14You will love it.

03:15And this is mishkaq,

03:16and that's the mandi chicken.

03:18So which one

03:19are you going to try first?

03:20Which one am I going to try?

03:22I would like to try...

03:24Let's try the shuwa.

03:25The shuwa.

03:26I sample each dish,

03:29savoring the unique flavors

03:30of Omani cuisine

03:31and finish with some sweet treats

03:33before the final stop

03:35on our tour.

03:37Welcome to the Royal Opera House.

03:39Here is the biggest opera house

03:41in GCC

03:42and the third one

03:44in Arab region

03:45after Egypt

03:46and Syria.

03:48I mean, it is very grand.

03:50Look at the space.

03:51Yeah, it's really...

03:52Look at the design,

03:53which is very impressive.

03:55Sepi Day guides me through the Opera House,

03:58highlighting its key features.

04:00The grand entrance,

04:02a remarkable collection

04:03of musical instruments

04:04gifted to the Sultan

04:06and the stunning Theatre Hall.

04:08I can only imagine

04:09how a performance is here

04:10with such a huge venue

04:12and a beautiful stage.

04:14Oman is a country full of history

04:17and so I am heading

04:19to the Oman Across Ages Museum

04:21where I am meeting with Haitham Al-Hina'i,

04:24Cultural Relations Administrator

04:26at the museum.

04:30Oman's history can be divided

04:32into four eras

04:34with the first dating back

04:35over 800 million years ago.

04:37Can you imagine that we have dinosaurs

04:40here in Oman

04:41and also we have elephants.

04:43So many and many animals

04:44do not exist anymore

04:46but in the old days

04:47we have it here in Oman.

04:48So here you are going to see

04:49many evidence.

04:50Can I walk on it?

04:51Yes, you can walk.

04:52It's OK.

04:53I can walk across the ages.

04:55Moving forward to human settlements

04:57in Oman, Haitham explains

04:59how remains found in ancient graves

05:01reveal the daily lives of early settlers,

05:04along with the animal species

05:06that once shared their environments.

05:08So really we are done

05:10from the stone era

05:12and we move to the bronze era.

05:14In bronze era we have

05:16a new civilization

05:18they call it Majan.

05:19And Majan it means

05:21the land of bronze

05:23and it was located

05:24in different era in Oman.

05:27Oman was famous

05:28for its rich copper resources

05:30and advanced shipbuilding skills.

05:32The region played a vital role in trade

05:38exporting copper and stone

05:40to Mesopotamia

05:41and the Indus Valley.

05:44Haitham tells me more

05:46about the country's

05:47ancient dynasties

05:48which were dependent

05:49on Oman's maritime power

05:51building forts

05:53to protect its towns

05:54and trade routes.

05:56Guided by one of the world's

05:58oldest dynasties

05:59the nation later modernized

06:01rapidly under Sultan Caboose.

06:11To experience Oman's history firsthand

06:13I'm visiting Nizwa Fort

06:15one of the country's most iconic landmarks

06:17built in the 17th century

06:19as a home for the ruler of the country

06:21known as the Imam.

06:23I'm meeting with engineer Hatim Ambasiadi

06:27executive director of the fort.

06:29Hatim leads me through the fort's entrance

06:33and while the walk feels effortless

06:35it quickly becomes clear

06:37just how carefully fortified

06:39and strategically designed

06:41this historic stronghold really is.

06:43This is the original

06:46and it's built with the material

06:48we call it here in Oman

06:49Saaruj.

06:50Saaruj.

06:51Yes, it's burned mud

06:52mixed with rocks.

06:53Very strong.

06:55Very strong, yes.

06:56And you have to burn it under

06:58850 degrees

07:00and it takes from 14 to 21 days

07:02to work as strong as a cement.

07:04That's why this fort here

07:06took 12 years to be built.

07:08The fort is a huge circular tower

07:13built on solid rock

07:14could withstand cannon fire

07:16and offered views in every direction.

07:18Inside, narrow corridors, hidden doors

07:21and false staircases

07:23created a clever defence system

07:25to stop intruders.

07:30It's remarkable to imagine the skill

07:32and complexity involved in constructing

07:34such a formidable stronghold.

07:37At the top, sweeping views over Niswa,

07:44date palms and distant mountains

07:46show why this vantage point

07:48was so important for defending the city.

07:58And here you're surrounded by the mountains.

08:00By the mountains, yes.

08:01It's 360 degree views of mountains.

08:03Exactly.

08:04So you have one way in, one way out

08:06so easy to spot the intruders when they come.

08:09Next, we head into the castle.

08:12Once home to rulers and officials

08:14where open living quarters,

08:16meeting rooms and courtyards

08:18reveal how governance and daily life

08:21balance defence and administration.

08:24We also visit the Imam's residence,

08:38whose simple furnishings reflect both leadership and modesty.

08:41Niswa Fort and Castle provide a window into Oman's past,

08:48leaving a lasting impression of the city's history,

08:52culture and enduring spirit.

08:54Oman's natural landscapes are as dramatic as its history.

09:00Tucked between Oman's dramatic cliffs,

09:04Wadi Shab is a hidden oasis,

09:06brimming with turquoise pools and cascading waterfalls.

09:09Today, I'm exploring this natural wonder with Abdullah,

09:13the Oman Raw explorer.

09:15Hey.

09:16Abdullah, hello.

09:17Nice to see you.

09:18Welcome.

09:19Thank you very much.

09:20What incredible scenery behind us.

09:22This is, we are now in Wadi Shab.

09:24So where we will go to see the Wadi.

09:27First, we need to take a boat from here to the other side

09:30and then we will do the hike to the nice pool up there.

09:34To get across the water, we board a boat for a very short ride

09:40before joining a hike that leads through a lush canyon

09:43with shaded paths and natural limestone pools along the way.

09:53Here is the donkey.

09:55The locals use the donkey here for the transportation, you know,

09:59from here up to the old village.

10:01They used to live there, but not anymore.

10:03Though the village is now abandoned,

10:06Wadi Shab remains a magnet for travelers

10:08in search of a hidden mountain oasis.

10:12Strolling past its crystal clear pools,

10:15it's easy to understand why adventurers from around the world

10:18are drawn here.

10:21Some pools are famous for adventure,

10:24like this one which hosted a Red Bull cliff diving competition.

10:28So they come here in 2012, they organized cliff diving,

10:31they jump from this cliff.

10:32Oh, not from here, but from up there.

10:35From up there, yes.

10:36How maybe around 27 meters high, yeah.

10:39Hidden waterfalls, emerald pools and towering cliffs

10:43create a paradise in the heart of Oman.

10:46Along this hike, countless hidden gems await,

10:49with even more stunning Wadi's to explore in the surrounding area.

10:53Something you really can't miss out on when you're in Oman is getting out on their crystal clear waters.

11:01So that's exactly what I'm doing.

11:04I am boarding a small boat operated by GCC Tours, which offers boat trips from Muscat Port.

11:11The sea was beautifully calm and turquoise in color.

11:15As we made our way into the open waters, the captain quickly spotted the dolphins.

11:21Soon we were surrounded by them, their sleek bodies cutting through the water with ease.

11:27The dolphins swam alongside the boat, leaping and diving in smooth, controlled motions.

11:34It was incredible to watch them up close, moving effortlessly through the sea.

11:39Oman is full of surprises.

11:43It's beauty, it's peace and it's people.

11:46And of course, it's dolphins.

11:49There's so much to explore here and I really haven't touched the surface,

11:53but it's time for my next adventure.
