Sultanate of Oman Map
In 1970, H.M. Sultan Qaboos bin Said became the Sultan of Oman. His extensive modernisation program has opened the country to the outside world while preserving the longstanding close ties with the UK. Oman's moderate, independent foreign policy has sought to maintain good relations with all Middle Eastern countries.
Heritage - the legacy that has been passed from generation to generation, the art, the culture, the folklore and the craftsmanship have to be seen.
But there is much more in the heart of Oman to explore: the sense of respect for time, for people, and for nature. Come and sample a part of Oman's rich heritage, kept alive and unchanged for generations. It may help you understand tomorrow a little better.
For its size, Oman boasts an unprecedented number of UNESCO-classified World Heritage Sites including:
Bat - with its tombs dating back 3,000 years
Fort of Bahla and the fascinating Frankincense Route. Oman's heritage features a great sea-faring tradition, as one would expect from a country with long strech of coastline.
Many museums and galleries around the secluded and historic harbors of Muscat, Muttrah and Sohar illuminate the importance of the sea and, indeed, of water generally, throughout Oman's 5,000 year-old history.
