Standing proudly on the cliffs overlooking Muscat’s harbor, Al Jalali and Al Mirani Forts are two of Oman’s most iconic historical landmarks. Built by the Portuguese in the 16th century during their occupation of Muscat, these twin forts once guarded the city against naval attacks. Al Jalali, to the east, and Al Mirani, to the west, are perched dramatically on rocky hills, offering spectacular views of the Gulf of Oman. Though not open to the public, their towering presence and preserved architecture make them a highlight for visitors. Together, they frame the majestic Al Alam Palace, blending military history with royal elegance. These forts represent Oman’s strategic importance and its rich history of resistance, defense, and maritime legacy.
