Nakhal is home to one of Oman's most picture-perfect forts, dramatically situated atop a small natural rock outcrop.
The origins of the fort probably date back to pre-Islamic times, although the structure was continuously remodelled over the following centuries, including a substantial rebuilding in the mid-seventeenth century, while the present gateway and towers were added in 1834, and the entire structure was comprehensively restored in 1990.

Jebel Shams is part of Oman’s Hajar Mountain range. I started this day with the understanding I had hired a driver and 4x4. When it was time to embark, I discovered I had only rented the truck ( no driver) and I was to drive myself, a daunting realisation to say the least.
Nevertheless, I decided to give it a go. After a two-hour drive through very steep and muddy hills (4WD engaged), I arrived to the lookout. It was completely clouded over. Not the “Mountain of Sun” I hoped for. It was already 3:00 PM and I told myself I must leave by 4:30 to avoid driving back in the dark. Just as I was about to call it quits, the clouds began to dissipate and revealed this stunning, natural wonder. It was so incredibly awesome, it brought a tear or two to my eye.
