About Muscat, Oman: Tony Wheeler Slideshow

From: LonelyPlanet (Subscribe to this user)

Tony Wheeler, one of the founders of Lonely Planet, visits Muscat in Oman. Drop your jaw at the over-the-top glamour of the Al Bustan and the Chedi hotels. Do check out the Sultan's Palace on the Waterfront. And if you're up for some shopping, there are plenty of bazaars to visit where your challenge is to purchase the most tacky souvenir. Tony's prize is a mosque alarm clock.

    Loved the intro but the low res pics didn't exactly capture the feel of Muscat. There's more to it than fancy hotels and mosques. Come for another visit and I'll show ya'll the real nitty gritty (and the fun stuff too).

    Hi. Your video homed in on the mosque in Matrah, identifying it as the Sultan's palace. Al Alam palace is actually in old Muscat, some miles away. See photos of Muscat at one of my websites: http://www.newsbriefsoman.info /Gallery.php . NB Two of the galleries currently do not display photos. These will be replaced shortly.
