Terraced fields on steep slopes, grand canyons and gorges, idyllic mountain villages, imposing forts and palaces -- the area surrounding Nizwa and Bahla and the region of the Jabal Akhdar massif offers numerous worthwhile sights. Centuries ago the cultural heartbeat of Oman was felt here.
The flanks of the 3000 meter high western Hajar mountain range offer an insurmountable natural stronghold. Here people were safe from attacks by invaders coming from the sea.
Anyone wishing to conquer these ramparts today can ascend the well-marked trekking paths to breathtaking viewpoints in dizzying heights on both Jabal Akhdar and Jabal Shams. Those wishing to reach the pinnacle more easily may do so by 4WD auto.
At the foot of the mountains Nizwa, Jabreen and Bahla developed into culture centers, serving for centuries as the land's capital.
