An underrated gem of visa-free countries! Oman, 5 days with an average cost of 2k per person

Located in the Middle East, to be honest, I didn't know much about Oman before coming here, and many of my friends hadn't even heard of it when they saw my location check-in here. After arriving in Oman, I was genuinely surprised; it is definitely a treasure of a country. It retains ancient traditions while also having a modern vibe. The country has a rich folk culture, and the people are simple and hospitable, known as 'the most gentle country in the Middle East'. Although the Gulf region of the Middle East is generally labeled as 'dangerous', Oman is one of the safest countries in the world. A wealthy life, peace, and cleanliness are my first impressions of this country. 🚩【Recommended Itinerary】 Day1 Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque — Oman National Museum — Sultan's Palace in Muscat — Mirani Fort — Muscat Gate Museum — Sunset at Mutrah Fort — Old Matrah Souq Day2 Nizwa Fort (Nizwa Castle) — Nizwa Souq Day3 Bimmah Sinkhole — Coastal area view point — Wadi Shab Day4 Join a tour to see dolphins at sea — Board at Marina Bandar Al Rowdha — Qantab Natural Arch 【Must-Visit Recommendations】 🌟Sunset at Mutrah Fort A famous landmark of Oman, by the sea with an S-shaped bay. You can feel the city's comfort during the day and see the fireworks of life at night. 🌟Nizwa Fort The most intact ancient castle in Oman, like stepping into a game world scene. 🌟Nizwa Souq Compared to the Old Matrah Souq in Muscat, I prefer the Nizwa Souq, which has less commercial atmosphere. 🌟Wadi Shab Canyon exploration, perfect for outdoor hiking enthusiasts. 🌟Dolphin Watching at Sea Oman has a high chance of seeing dolphins; it's a great experience if you want to try different activities. 【Transportation】 Oman is very suitable for self-driving. Car rental and fuel are not expensive, and the attractions are quite far apart, so it's more convenient to travel by car. There are many rent car companies in the city. •• 🚗Car Rental: 9 OMR per day, equivalent to 180 RMB per day (recommended by the hotel front desk where I stayed, which is a good deal) ⛽️Refueling: Filling up an empty tank costs 160 RMB, which is very cheap 🛏️Hotel: Capital Hotel Apartments (clean and bright rooms, about 100 RMB per person per day, free Arabian coffee and dates tasting in the lobby every morning, and nearby is the largest shopping mall in Muscat, Oman Mall, great for evening shopping, dining, and strolling)
