We will start our journey proceeding ,first, towards the spectacular Nizwa Fort with its massive Circular Cannon Tower, one of the most impressive forts in Oman.
We will also visit the Nizwa traditional Souq the old traditional market... A lively place and an ideal location to purchase handicrafts and souvenirs with a wide variety of vendors offering their goods in the streets of this place from 05:00 am to about midday.
Here we can find fish, meat, vegetables, pottery, jewelry, handicrafts and souvenirs which are sold in authentic old market halls that few places can boast.
Especially interesting is the Friday cattle market, when the locals from the nearby Villages come to sell their donkeys, goats, cattle, sheep and chickens in a circus style open market place.
