Before entering the gates of Qasr Al Hosn fort, we are welcomed by a charming museum that immerses us in the fascinating history of this iconic structure.

Through a wall of evocative images, this museum transports us to the past, revealing the customs and traditions of yesteryears, as well as picturesque views of the fort proudly emerging amidst the desert expanses. Once isolated in the sand, this historic bastion now stands at the heart of a modern city in constant hustle and bustle.
