The market is a destination for tourists and citizens alike, as it creates an atmosphere of old times through the variety of its exhibits, whether handicrafts such as silver, daggers, traditional fabrics, and different spices, in addition to the famous Omani Halwa (sweet).
Souq Mutrah is considered a model of the old eastern markets, as it is characterized by narrow, winding, wooden-roofed passageways. (end) nfo.seo
