Muscat - The most beautiful boring spot in the world!
6 votes
This really is a one day thing. The scenery is some of the most beatiful I've ever seen. Muscat was a fort long time ago, to protect from the Portuguese invadors. Its surrounded by magnificant mountains, and lies on the Arabian Gulf.
Favourite spots:
Just hike up a few mountains near the Corniche, and you'll surely get a beautiful view.
What's really great:
The scenery is just amazing. You'll really lose your breath. Be careful climbing those mountains though....loose gravel isn't fun!
Accommodations:
There is no heart of the city to stay in. The best deal we found was the Quram Beach Hotel, which was about 55 US Dollars a night for a two room suite, which included three twin beds and a living area as well.
Nightlife:
There are no clubs!
Hangouts:
Nope...no pubs...well there are a few in some hotels, but none worth mentioning.
