🇴🇲 Oman Travel: Ultra-Detailed Guide

✨ DAY 2 Highlights 🕌 Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque (Free entry | Closed Fridays) Oman’s largest mosque & 3rd largest in the world 🌍 Only mosque open to non-Muslims—perfect for cultural immersion! Must-see: World’s largest Swarovski chandelier 💎 Handwoven Persian carpet (made by 600 Iranian women over 4 years!) 🧶 Intricate Quranic inscriptions—so breathtaking, it moved me to tears 😭 📌 Tips: 👗 Dress code: Women: Long sleeves + pants + headscarf (no skin except face) Men: No shorts (robes available for rent) 📸 Photography allowed (extremely photogenic!) ☕ Free Arabic coffee & dates + English guided tours (highly informative) 🌅 Visit at sunset—the cool breeze & golden light make it magical! 🏰 Al Alam Palace (Free, exterior only) Royal office & reception hall (closed to public) Best view: Climb Mirani Fort (10 OMR) for a panoramic shot 📸 🏛 National Museum of Oman (5 OMR) 14 galleries + 7,000+ artifacts (closed on Eid—I missed it 😢) ⏰ Hours: 10AM-5PM (last entry 4PM) | Closed Fridays & holidays 🚗 Perfect 1-Day Route (No backtracking!): 1️⃣ Sultan Qaboos Mosque → (18min drive) 2️⃣ Royal Opera House → (20min drive) 3️⃣ Mutrah Fort → (5min walk) 4️⃣ Mutrah Souq (spices & souvenirs!) → (3min walk) 5️⃣ Corniche (stunning coastline + royal yachts!) → (8min drive) 6️⃣ Mirani Fort (skip if short on time—similar to Mutrah Fort) → (5min walk) 7️⃣ Al Alam Palace → (3min walk) 8️⃣ National Museum 💡 Pro Tips: Skip Mirani Fort if pressed for time (overpriced & repetitive). Corniche is a must! Perfect for sunset strolls 🌊 #OffTheBeatenPath #OmanTravel #HiddenGems #TravelDifferently 🌏✨
