O atrakciji
Brze činjenice: Ova tvrđava se uzdiže na steni visokoj 20 metara, iznad doline vadi. Njeni zidovi su debeli do 3 metra, a unutra se kriju podzemni tuneli koji su vodili do tajnih izvora vode.
Istaknuto: Gledajući sa kule, pruža se pogled na jedino mesto u Omanu gde se pustinja susreće sa okeanom, prizor za koji bi fotografi dali polovinu svoje opreme. Na zidovima tvrđave i dalje su vidljivi drevni natpisi koje su ostavili portugalski moreplovci pre 400 godina.
Insajderski saveti
- 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.
