I am not really a fan of beaches of any kind (well, sometimes :-)) but this one is very special. I'd never seen a more beautiful beach before, really not! This is the so called Turtle Beach in the beautiful Sultanate of Oman. The beach is not easy to access, you have to drive a quite long distance and then walk, but it was worth it. We didn't see any turtles, though. They come in the night and you must book a special tour because this beach is then closed for the visitors
We were on our last day in Oman when we visited the wonderful Muscat Festival of Culture ,where many activities/things were on display. This lady, in her full "regalia", was grinding corn in the traditional manner.

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.
