The famous Matrach Market
Description:
Al Matrah Market is one of the oldest in Muscat. It is located on the ancient embankment of Kornish, next to the bay, on both sides of which two silent guards - forts Jalali and Mirani - have frozen.
It is distinguished by the “traditional” Arab interior – narrow streets resembling labyrinths, small benches. This place is ideal for purchasing souvenirs: memorable and authentic to the Arab world things, incense, antique weapons, sandalwood products, oil, jewelry, fragrant Omani coffee.
It is customary to bargain here, so you can buy all this for a relatively low price. There are a number of issues related to the market. First, the afternoon siesta. Secondly, Friday is a national holiday.
