O atrakciji
Brze činjenice: Smešten na kamenitom uzvišenju s pogledom na Omanski zaliv, ovu tvrđavu su prvobitno izgradili Portugalci 1580-ih da bi štitili luku u Muscatu. Njene dve osmatračke kule i dramatičan položaj na litici nekada su držali topove koji su mogli ispaljivati upozoravajuće hice preko čitavog zaliva.
Istaknuto: Za razliku od većine tvrđava koje deluju kao prašnjavi muzeji, ova i dalje ima pokretni pokretni most i originalne portugalske topove uperene u more. Popnite se uskim stepenicama na krov u zalasku sunca i posmatrajte kako se svetla grada pale preko luke ispod.
Insajderski saveti
- Wear sturdy closed-toe shoes as the stone stairways are steep, uneven, and can be slippery after rain.
- Head to the northeastern tower for the best photo of the fort against the sea and the old city walls below.
- Combine your visit with a walk along the nearby corniche and a stop at the adjacent Al Mirani Fort for a fuller experience.
- Go early on a weekday morning to have the fort nearly to yourself before tour groups arrive around 10 AM.
