Qasr Al Alam Royal Palace is the working office for Sultan
Qaboos. Built in 1972, it is flanked on each side by the ancient Al
Jalali and Al Mirani Forts making an impressive and well-fortified
greeting to ships entering Muscat's harbour. Tourists are not
allowed inside the classically styled building for obvious security
reasons, but it remains a popular area to walk around and to
photograph.
Address: Qasr Al Alam Royal Palace Old Town Opening Time: Closed to public but always open to view from the
outside
