Things to Do in Ad Dakhiliyah ‍Governorate in 2026

The #ruins of #Tanuf, #Oman 🇴🇲 are a strange combination of decimated #buildings with very crisp and clear details, including door frames and windows. It makes for quite a fascinating and #spooky place!

The very rugged Hajar Mountains of #Oman, near-ish to #Tanuf. I started driving up the #rocky road in my notoriously unreliable Jeep. I realised I had no idea where the road was going and I was only getting further from civilisation, so reluctantly turned back soon after this shot was taken.

The last #journey of my old Jeep was also one of the most interesting, ranging in-country as far as #Bahla, #Oman 🇴🇲. Sadly, the old #fort there was still under #renovation when I was there in January 2011.

Have you heard of the remote village of #Tanuf, #Oman 🇴🇲? I’d be very surprised if you had - it was bombed to #ruins by the British Royal Air Force during the Jebel Akhdar War in the late 1950s. The remains still stand, as a rather #spooky monument to that little-known conflict.

This is the #view from the top of the tower of #Nizwa Fort, #Oman 🇴🇲. I once interviewed an archaeologist for an article I was working on about the country’s hundreds of towers, castles and forts and he explained about the different design philosophies you can see. This #fort, he said, is in a dreadful defensive position. As a fortification, it is next to worthless. As a show of dominance over the surrounding #town, it’s outstanding. This view from the ramparts really demonstrates that.
