Exploring Muscat’s serene beauty: the Grand Mosque is an absolute must-visit! Truly mesmerizing, it’s one of the most stunning mosques I’ve had the privilege to experience. 🕌✨ Here’s a few things to know before your visit: ✨ It’s open to tourists every day except Friday between the hours of 8:30 - 11:00 AM ✨ There’s no entrance fee so it’s a great free* activity to do while you’re in Muscat ✨ Visitors are required to dress modestly and women must cover their hair to respect the religion. You can rent clothes at the gift shop but I highly recommend immersing yourself in the religion and culture and investing in an abaya (they’re so beautiful!) Mine is from @classy.ym in Abu Dhabi ✨ Are you planning on making a trip to #muscat anytime soon? Don’t forget to save 🇴🇲🤍 #visitoman #omantravel #grandmosque #sultanqaboosgrandmosque #middleeasttravel #muscatoman #borntoexplore #travelvlogger #experienceoman

A must Visit in Oman 🕌 ⤵️ The Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque is one of the most beautiful & impressive mosques I have ever seen. With secong largest chandelier in the world and exquisite craftsmanship, its my absolute favorite. If you are in Muscat even for a day, let this be on number 1 thing to do here! I have visited two times, and I will return again in a heart beat! 🫶🏼 Have you visited this architectural beauty in Oman? 𝐓𝐑𝐀𝐕𝐄𝐋 𝐓𝐈𝐏𝐒: ✦ This is the only mosque in Oman open to public from Saturday to Thursday from 8-11AM. Closed on Friday for tourists. ✦ Arrive at the opening time for the best experience as most tours start coming by 9AM ✦ Women should be covered from ankle to wrist with headscarf. You can wear jeans & long sleeves shirt too. ✦ If you wish you can rent abaya too for 3OMR (~7.5$). ✦ Bring sunnies as it gets very hard to look at on a sunny day. ✦ The mosque is free to enter but there is an option to rent an audio guide for 2.5 OMR. ✦ You can easily spend 1.5-2h here. Make sure to walk the entire complex as its absolutely stunning.
