Nizwa Fort Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Mar)
No more hiding! Oman, this less-known visa-free country, is a must-visit!
Dubai is fun, but you can't play for a long time just for it, so be sure to go to Abu Dhabi and Oman, both are visa-free countries, and it's super cool to play.
.
🌏First, where is Oman?
Oman is located on the Arabian Peninsula, bordered by the United Arab Emirates to the northwest, Yemen to the south, Saudi Arabia to the west, and the Arabian Sea to the entire east. Compared to the oil-rich countries like Qatar and the United Arab Emirates, Oman is as low-key as an infp. The public security here is also good, and the country is stable without any wars, it is a country worth traveling.

At present, there is no direct flight in China, usually transfer in Dubai, so you can fly to Dubai first, then go to Abu Dhabi, and then fly to Oman from Abu Dhabi.
