This palace is located close to the seashore within Muscat city and surrounded by forts. The travel to old Muscat along the corniche is truly amazing. The souq is located on the way to the palace. It has well-maintained lawn, pedestrian walk way and beautifully designed garden with flowers. The contemporary architectural design of the palace reminds us of Oman’s heritage and historic beauty.
Unfortunately the palace isn’t open to the public; however there is no restriction to walk around the place. There is a huge gate in front of the palace.
There is plenty of parking space available adjacent to the palace. It seems that the palace is currently used only for official visit of the Sultan. There is a National museum located next to this palace.

Hi Arun, I came to know of your blog, because you posted a comment on mine. I liked your entire Muscat series: Over 30 years ago I lived there for a short while, but did not have enough opportunities then to travel like you! Your lovely photos highlighted that much development has taken place (naturally) over that time. If you have an opportunity, you must visit the southern Omani city of Salalah — I loved it, as parts of it used to look like Kerala. And Mogsail Beach was (is?) a very beautiful place.Keep traveling and keep writing.
