Oman: Nakhal Fort

Yet another massive fairytale-perfect fort set in a wadi (oasis) at the foothills of mountains. With huge towers and thick walls, this thing seems almost impregnable. They really should have filmed “The Lord of the Rings” here. The fort is surrounded by orchard and date palm groves (in fact 16 typed of dates are grown here). It was built in a typical Omani style with massive walls and bulbous towers. Looks awesome at sunset!
