Oman

In the organizer's words:

In his travel report on the Sultanate, Arabia expert Hardy Fiebig impressively shows what fascinates him so much about Oman: from the Musandam peninsula on the Persian-Arabian Gulf in the far north with its 2,000-metre-high mountain ridges plunging steeply into the sea, he travels to the frankincense province of Dhofar in the south. Other highlights include the Hajar Mountains, which dominate the panorama of northern Oman with spectacular rock formations and deeply incised wadis, as well as cities steeped in history such as the glittering capital Muscat, Nizwa as the Mecca of mud architecture or the port city of Sur, which was important for trade with East Africa and India for centuries. No less spectacular are the 2,000 kilometers of coastline, the vast deserts such as Wahiba Sands, Jiddat al-Harasis or the queen of the Arabian deserts, the mighty Rubb al-Khali. Thanks to his knowledge of Arabic, Hardy Fiebig takes part in the everyday life of Bedouin families, oasis farmers, camel breeders, animal traders and incense collectors. And it becomes clear to him that the country's greatest treasure is the Omanis with their warmth and hospitality.
