2. Nizwa Souq

While on your romantic getaway or honeymoon in Oman, a visit to Nizwa Souq goes without saying. This, and the historic Nizwa Fort, have been bustling since the 17th Century. 

The locals are well-enamoured with the Friday Cattle Market, which is staged from 6am weekly. Watch everyone eagly converge to sell or buy a new cow, goat or camel – it’s an adrenalin-pumping experience just to watch! When you and your loved one need a sweet fix, take a little trip to the most popular and famous Halwa manufacturer in Oman. Al-Saifi’s store is the perfect place to indulge that sweet tooth with one of Oman’s most iconic treats.
