Top tips for Paris to Muscat
Visit the Grand Mosque
No trip to Muscat would be complete without a visit to the Grand Mosque – a cultural symbol of the country similar in national importance to the Eiffel Tower in Paris.
Be amazed by the ornate beauty of the main prayer room and see one of the world’s largest Persian rugs that took over four years to make. Women are required to cover their hair to enter – shawls are available at a small cost – and all visitors should dress conservatively and respectfully.
The vibrant Mutrah Souq
Prepare for an entirely novel experience with a trip to Mutrah Souq. Bustling with energy, noise, vibrant colours and smells, this marketplace may be a world away from the designer boutiques of Paris – but it’s just as unforgettable. Haggling is expected, so see if you can bag a bargain.
