Muscat External Links

There are very few informational websites - the best I found were:

• wikipedia.org - good Muscat overview, history and links
• lonelyplanet.com - good Muscat basic overview and information.
• Google Earth - have a detailed look around the city. Great fun.

I thoroughly enjoy reading other people's travelogues and looking through their photos. Here are my favourites:

• edwebproject.org - Andy Carvin has very good photos and travelogue from Muscat in August 2003.
• travelblog.org - very good Muscat photos and travelogue
• pbase.com - spoonbender - Good Muscat travelogue and photos.
• flickr.com, picasaweb.google.com, pbase.com, and trekearth.com - lots of Muscat photos.
