O znamenitosti
Hitre informacije: Ta trdnjava stoji na 20 metrov visoki skali, ki se dviga nad dolino wadi. Njeni zidovi so debeli do 3 metre, v notranjosti pa se skrivajo podzemni predori, ki so vodili do skrivnih vodnih virov.
Poudarki: S stolpa se odpira edini kraj v Omanu, kjer se puščava sreča z oceanom. To je prizor, za katerega bi fotografi dali polovico svoje opreme. Na stenah trdnjave so še vedno vidni starodavni napisi, ki so jih pred 400 leti pustili portugalski mornarji.
Notranji nasveti
- Don't miss the chance to climb to the very top tower: it offers the best view over the entire bay and the city.
- Come on weekdays, when there are almost no visitors, while on weekends local families have picnics here.
- Try to find the old Portuguese carved marks on the southern wall: it is a detail known to very few.
- Wear comfortable shoes: the steps are stone and quite steep, and handrails are not everywhere.
