Nizwa Fort, Oman.

Nizwa Fort:

The Fort of Nizwa is definitely one of the most remarkable sights of the small town. The tower of the fort can be seen from afar.

With a diameter of 45 meters and a height of 35 meters, it is not only the largest structure of the oasis of Nizwa, which it far surpasses, but it is also the mightiest tower in all of Oman.

Similar to other castle and fortifications in the area, this tower was built under Sultan bin Saif bin Malik al-Ya´aruba in the mid-17th century. The construction of this impressive fortification took around twelve years.

The residential complexes of the fort are significantly older and date back to the 9th century.
