Al Mirani Fort played an important defensive role over the years. Now a historic site, you can only imagine some of the spectacles its fortified walls have witnessed.

You'll have no end of sightseeing choices when visiting Muscat. Al Mirani Fort is a great place to start here, but there are lots of other worthwhile spots to appreciate. Muttrah Souq, Muttrah Corniche, and Qantab Beach are not far from the history-filled fortress and will fill in your day nicely.
