The #minaret of Al Qala’a #Mosque in #Nizwa, #Oman 🇴🇲, as seen from the top of the walls of the city’s #fort. #LifeAtExpedia
This is the #view from the top of the tower of #Nizwa Fort, #Oman 🇴🇲. I once interviewed an archaeologist for an article I was working on about the country’s hundreds of towers, castles and forts and he explained about the different design philosophies you can see. This #fort, he said, is in a dreadful defensive position. As a fortification, it is next to worthless. As a show of dominance over the surrounding #town, it’s outstanding. This view from the ramparts really demonstrates that. #LifeAtExpedia
We had the best breakfast there
