Welcome to the blog of Oman Explorer
Jabal Akhdar, often referred to as the "Green Mountain," is a stunning mountain range in Oman’s Al Hajar Mountains. Located about 150 kilometers from the capital, Muscat, it is renowned for its lush greenery, terraced farms, and cool climate, which contrasts sharply with the surrounding arid desert landscapes. The region is celebrated for its rich biodiversity, including unique flora and fauna, and its traditional villages, where ancient agricultural practices like terrace farming are still maintained. Jabal Akhdar is also a popular destination for hiking and exploring its dramatic canyons and scenic viewpoints.
Oman is rich in natural beauty. It has a vast resource of places to visit and explore. In this blog, my endeavor is to try listing some of its hidden gems. If you have any feedback or comments, please feel free to post them here. ~Farees
