Travel Inspiration: Dynamic Change in the Gulf. Oman & the United Arab Emirates.
Change is afoot—and what change it is. Though we seek out pockets of antiquity and remnants of the old ways in Oman and the U.A.E., we also glimpse the future in dynamic Dubai. Begin in Muscat, Oman, for time in the old and new towns and one of the Middle East’s most vibrant markets. See Nizwa’s livestock market and ancient fort. Jabreen has an imposing castle. Craftsmen keep busy in the quaint town of Al Hamra— just as their fathers (and their fathers) did. Wadi
Nakhar is the Middle East’s equivalent of our Grand Canyon. To Abu Dhabi, U.A.E., then into the desert at Al Maha. Finally, Dubai, headquarters of all that’s 21st century and beyond in the region.
