The Oman Across Ages Museum , Oman ’ s monumental new museum located near the ancient city of Nizwa , has opened to the public for the first time . The 300,000m2 museum complex tells the story of the civilisations and dynasties which created Oman , from the first settlers of prehistory to the modern day , with the latest technology used to bring visitors on a journey through the nation ’ s history .
Event worked closely with the Royal Court of Affairs ( RCA ) to realise the vision of the late His Majesty Sultan Qaboos bin Said al Said ( 1940- 2020 ) to create a hi-tech , interactive cultural venue that would speak to Omanis - especially the younger generations - about their country , culture and heritage , inspiring them to contribute to shaping the Sultanate ’ s future .
