Muscat, Dec 1: Muscat is a beautiful city situated along the Gulf of Oman, close to the strategic Straits of Hormuz. It is the largest city in Oman and also its capital.

Daijiworld's star photographer Dayanand Kukkaje recently visited Muscat, and captured the breathtaking beauty of the city for our readers.

Muscat is dominated by a rocky landscape formed by the Western Al Hajar Mountains that give it a quaint old-world look, but along with preserving its rich cultural heritage, the city has gracefully embraced modernity in infrastructure and facilities.

The winding roads, sparkling blue water bodies, small shops, modern markets, skyscrapers and well-maintained and clean roads make Muscat an enchanting city.

Muscat has earned the distinction of being the cleanest Arab city. From mosques to museums, gardens to corniches and adventure activities, the city houses a number of tourist attractions.

If you have been to Muscat or are staying there, you are bound to recall and enjoy the magnificent scenes captured here. If you haven't been there yet, this may well make you draw up some travel plans! 

Enjoy!
