EDITORS COMMENTS
Basking in the golden glow of the setting sun, the picturesque fishing village of Mathra, nestled along the shores of Muscat, Oman, presents a captivating view from the sea. The tranquil bay, dotted with traditional Omani dhows and colorful fishing boats, reflects the rich history and cultural heritage of this ancient port city. Mathra, a popular destination for both locals and tourists, has been a significant fishing community for centuries. The traditional dhow boats, with their distinctive sails and intricately carved wooden frames, continue to be an integral part of the local fishing industry. The boats, moored along the shore, add a vibrant touch to the otherwise serene landscape. The historical significance of Mathra is evident in its ancient fort, Al Baleed, which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The fort, believed to date back to the 12th century, stands as a testament to the region's rich history and the influence of various civilizations that have passed through this area. As the sun sets, the sky transforms into a canvas of brilliant hues, casting a magical spell over the village and the sea. The gentle lapping of the waves against the shore, the sound of seagulls in the distance, and the sight of traditional fishing boats returning to the shore with their catch, make for a perfect end to a day in this enchanting corner of Muscat, Oman.
