Superb - had not been disneyfied

This was one of the gems of the Middle East. The family who found nothing to do should stick to Disneyland as they are the curse of places of real culture like Salalah. For those of you who want to see a culture that has existed for thousands of years this is the place to go to. Visit Job's Tomb and the exquisite mountain scenery. Walk the white sands and visit the markets with their sights and smells. Taste the Mangoes!!!
