About the Book
For the very first time, a detailed landscape photographic record of Nakhal Fort and it’s environs recorded by a Landscape Photographer. Nakhal Fort, also known as Hosn Al Heem, or in Arabic: قلعة نخل (Qalʿa Nakhal) is a large fortification in the Al Batinah Region of the Sultanate of Oman. It is named after the Wilayah of Nakhal, and contains a museum, operated by the Ministry of Tourism. Here the visitor can view historic guns, and periodically a goat market.
Located approximately 120 kilometres, (or 75 miles) to the North-West of the capital city of the Sultanate of Oman, Muscat, it is a dramatic landmark on a rocky face of Jebel Nakhal, at the entrance of Wilayt Nakhal in Wadi Ar Raqeem.
