Oman
The Middle Eastern sultanate of Oman for a long
time has had a reputation as an isolated desert locale that held little
appeal for even the most rugged independent traveler. But a recently
built network of paved roads and well-maintained mountain tracks has
made the Arabian peninsula nation more accessible. Ruins and castles dot
the landscape, and cities are colorful with markets and souqs. At heart
Oman is a nature lover's destination that includes the Grand
Canyon-like Jebel Akhdar Mountains, Wahiba Sands Desert and beaches that
are nesting sites for green turtles.
