Must-Visit Friday Market Experience in 🇴🇲

If you’re in Muscat on a Friday morning, don’t miss the traditional Friday Market – a lively local experience full of color, culture, and character. From handmade Omani crafts, fresh fruits, dates, spices, and antiques to second-hand treasures and traditional clothes, this market has something unique for everyone. I loved interacting with friendly local vendors and watching the hustle bustle of real Omani life. How to Reach: 📍The market is usually held in the Seeb or near Muttrah Corniche (confirm with locals or online before going). 🚗 Easy to reach by taxi or rental car from central Muscat – around 20-30 minutes. 🕖 Best time to visit: Early morning (7–10 AM) to avoid the heat and catch the best items! 🥙 Where to eat nearby: Just a short walk from the market, there’s a small Indian veg restaurant called Dabeli—a hidden gem! Their Indian street food like dabeli, vada pav, and masala chai is a must-try. Great taste, budget-friendly, and pure veg—perfect for a snack after exploring the market. It’s not just a market—it’s a cultural experience. Highly recommended if you want to see the authentic side of Oman. 🌞🕌✨#yathra #oman #gowithtrip
