Jebel Akhdar


 

Another beautiful place in oman which is located near Nizwa...appx 180 kms from muscat...It lies 3000 m (appx) above the sea level...there is a military check point at a place where the rop checks our Resident card and driving license and allows 4wd only to climb up the mountain....driving will be interesting and challenging...The place is so cool and enjoyable...There are many coffee shops, petrol pump etc., 3-4 villages can be seen in the mountain...wherever u turn u can see lots of pomegranets, rose plants, grapes etc....climbing up and getting down is not that much difficult as others see/think/heard...but to drive in 35-40 kms speed will be a safe journey...
Peacock in Muscat

This place has got "n" no. of peacocks, wandering here and there...it is so beautiful...but when we go nearby it moves away....no restrictions to watch this...
