🌅 The light and shadow of the old city of Nizwa at sunset

Walking into Nizwa Fort and Harat Al Aqar, the old city, is like stepping back in time hundreds of years. The silhouettes of towers at dusk and the illuminated streets and alleyways at night evoke a sense of being transported to the embrace of ancient Arabian civilization.

Tucked away behind the city walls, local cafes offer a rare chance for coolness and tranquility in the scorching July heat, with a cup of Arabic kava and the sound of the wind blowing across the mud-brick rooftops.
