A woman should wear clothing that covers her arms, legs, and head with a scarf, while a man should wear normal shirt and trousers. On the way to the fish market, we drive past ministries and embassies. We also drive through the Marvellous Beach Street in Al Qurum. The fish and vegetable market is where locals buy and sell fresh fish and seafood. A short drive from the fish market takes you to Mutrah Souq, Oman's largest traditional market. From there, you can visit Bait Al Zubair Museum for a fascinating view of Omani culture.
