Step through the historic gateway to Old Muscat and discover the story of our city at the Muscat Gate Museum. Housed right inside the original city wall, this charming museum offers a cool, air-conditioned escape where you can explore Oman's rich history, from ancient maritime trade to the development of the capital. After you've taken in the exhibits, head upstairs for some of the best panoramic views of the Corniche and the old city—it's a perfect photo opportunity.
