If the question, why should you visit Oman from Dubai is directed towards me, I would say my relatives are there! (Just buttering for a stay during my next visit). But, craziness apart, Oman is a fascinating country with a lot of surprises. I have grown up hearing the tales of this enchanting country from my cousins. In fact, this is one country I have longed to visit since childhood. To me, it was a tranquil nation with rocky mountains and turquoise blue wadis. However, you won’t get that “Dubai glitz and glam” in Oman, but if you want to experience the deep-rooted Arabic culture, then Oman is the right place for you.
