Step back in time and experience the charm of the 1,500-year-old Al-Aqar neighbourhood, one of Nizwa’s most historic and authentic quarters. Stroll through its narrow alleys surrounded by traditional mud-brick houses and ancient architecture, and feel the spirit of Omani heritage come alive. The neighbourhood is enclosed by a two-kilometre wall and features four historic gates known as “Sabahat”, each telling a story of Nizwa’s rich past and community traditions.
