Muscat

Oman — a country on the Arabian Peninsula uniquely blessed with beaches, mountains, and deserts, a land that hides luxury in its blue seas and fjords, exchanging noise for wind and light.
With the upcoming launch of the direct flight route from Beijing to Muscat and the implementation of a visa-free policy for tourists, this nation, known as the safest and most peaceful in the Middle East, is quietly unveiling its mysteries.
The journey begins in the capital, Muscat, where the air is infused with the scents of frankincense, rose, and sandalwood, and the markets weave a dreamlike Arabian tapestry of gold jewelry and spices.
Departing from Muscat’s harbor, less than an hour by speedboat, the sea color shifts from teal to milky blue — you arrive at the "Maldives of the Middle East" — the Daymaniyat Islands. Designated by UNESCO as a World Biosphere Reserve, the waters here are so clear that sunlight penetrates the coral reefs below. Here, you can swim alongside sea turtles and watch whale sharks glide slowly underwater — no water villas, no human voices, only the echo of waves crashing against the rocks.
