Salalah Among Top Travel Destinations to Visit in 2023

New York Times included Oman's Salalah among the Top 52 Places to Go in 2023. The only other place from the Arab world to feature in the list is Tassili n’Ajjer of Algeria.

Other featured places include India's Kerala, New Zealand's Auckland and Japan's Morioka.

Salalah is also home to the “Land of Frankincense,” a collection of sites that has made it to the UNESCO World Heritage List.

The Omani city offers historical frankincense tours to sightseeing where you can visit Al Baleed Archaeological Park and the Museum of the Frankincense Land.

You can also learn about the visual history of the ancient incense trade and the associated export routes to the rest of the world at the Museum of the Frankincense Land.

New York Times said “Depending on when you go, the area is either lush and green and blanketed in thick fog, or basking in sunlight and a warm breeze. During the khareef (monsoon), the valleys and riverbeds are flooded with fresh water, and the mountains flow with waterfalls.”
