Offering a unique insight into the diplomatic ties and friendship between Oman and France, the Omani French Museum Muscat provides a fascinating sightseeing experience. Located in the Old Quarter of Muscat, this museum is housed in what used to be the residence of Bait Faransa, a former French Consul. Inaugurated in 1992, the museum showcases such items and exhibits as historical documents, old furniture and photographs and even costumes worn by the two respective countries. Those in search of an Oman beach resort that caters to both business and leisure travellers can choose Millennium Resort Mussanah. Home to its own private marina, this Oman Muscat hotel also boasts state of the art event space for conferences and functions.
