Om
Hurtige fakta: Denne promenade strækker sig langs en af de længste naturlige bugter i Oman. Den forbinder den gamle bys havn med de traditionelle skibsbyggerkvarterer.
Højdepunkter: Her ved molekanten kan man stadig se håndværkere sy traditionelle omanske sejlskibe, dhow, i hånden. Hvert sådant skib bygges uden nogen tegninger, kun ud fra århundreders erfaring givet videre i hukommelsen.
Insidertips
- Early in the morning, stop by the nearby fish market. There you will see the most authentic face of the city and the freshest catch of the day.
- The best time to visit the sailboat shipyards is around 9-11 a.m., when the craftsmen are working most actively, but ask for permission before entering.
- In the evenings, the promenade fills with local families. This is a great time to observe real Omani life, not just the tourist faces.
- Order coffee or tea at one of the seaside cafes and simply watch the sunset over the silhouettes of the dhow boats.
