Misfat Al Abriyeen is one of the most atmospheric mountain villages in Oman.

Mudbrick houses are stacked into the mountainside, connected by narrow alleyways, wooden doors, and rooftop terraces. It feels almost maze-like.

The best way to explore this place is simply by wandering around without a plan!

NOTE: cars are not allowed inside the town. Park here and explore on foot: 23°08'26.7"N 57°18'37.5"E
