OVERVIEW
The civilization of Oman dates back many thousands of years. Known for their seafaring tradition, from the 16th to 19th centuries the Sultans of Oman ruled over rich trading empire stretching from the coast of East Africa, via trading colonies like Zanzibar, to the tip of the Indian subcontinent.
Many European powers have been attracted to this wealth throughout the years, especially the Portuguese, who invaded the country in the 16th century and were two centuries later pushed by the expanding British Empire, which signed a treaty of friendship with Oman which survives to the present.
Muscat, the capital city, combines the old and the new. In the old part of the city, visitors can find forts, castles, mosques and towers. Some places worth visiting are Jalali and Mirani forts, Al Alam Palace and the Corniche. The modern part of the city, Greater Muscat, is characterized by high rise buildings, highways, green parks and international hotels.
Omani people are mainly Ibadhi Muslim and their official language is Arabic. Oman has a dry desert climate with a summer monsoon season (May to September). The country's currency is the Omani Rial.
Some tips to take into account when visiting Oman: US driving permits are accepted, the electricity runs on 240 Volts and the country code is 968.
