Description
This journey will take you in the wadis of the Hajjar Range to visit the sites that are more spectacular for their beauty. It will enable you to read the pages of rock on which the ancient inhabitants of Oman have written their history. The sites that you will be visiting were very important for ritual, social and religious purposes. While visiting them, you should approach the rock art with the same respect and consideration that was felt by the ancient artists and their community. It is because others have respected the sites and rock art that you are now able to visit them yourself, and in turn you can allow others to enjoy and study the rock art in the future. We will visit the capital Muscat, a sweet mélange of modernity and tradition, and the National Museum.
