http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oman   Region: Southwest Asia Area total: 309,501 km² Coast line: Arabian Sea, Gulf of Oman Capital: Muscat     Beehive Tombs: The earliest stone-built tombs which can be called 'beehive', are in Oman, built of stacked flat stones which occur in nearby geological formations. They date to between 3,500 and 2,500 years BC, to a period when the Arabian peninsula was subject to much more rainfall than now, and supported a flourishing civilisation in what is now desert, to the west of the mountain range along the Gulf of Oman. No burial remains have ever been retrieved from these 'tombs', though there seems no other purpose for their building. They are built entirely above ground level and the entrances are usually an undifferentiated part of the circular walling of the tomb.   Bimmah Sinkhole     Ruins of Ibra Ibra is one of the oldest cities in Oman and was once a centre of trade, religion, education and art and has become a more modern city since 1970 under the reign of Sultan Qaboos.  .   Jebel Akhdar mountains -Grand Canyon     Palace in Bayt an Naman     Qualhat Mariam   Khasab Fort - Musandam     Khasab Fort - Musandam     Khasab Fort - Musandam     Khasab Fort - Musandam     Sohar was an ancient capital of Oman and many believe it to be the birthplace of  Sinbad the Sailor.     Sohar     In  the Gulf of Oman Sohar.Sinbad's treasures
