A beautifully created playful snap shot of Omani life style from 1950 to 1975. The art gallery houses an interesting selection of art works by local artists. Well placed on Corniche. A delightful museum. A MUST.

An incredible and unique experience to walk through what it was like to live in an Omani home in the 60s/70s. Every detail has been thought of which allows the viewer to transport oneself to that era. A must see when visiting the Musvat/Corniche area.
