Al-Qaratain is an abandoned village in the Wiliyat of Izki in the Interior Region of the Sultanate of Oman. The last inhabitants moved to a modern village nearby or passed away c. 1980.

Harat Al-Bilad is a very large, abandoned settlement in the Wiliyat of Manah in the Interior Region of the Sultanate of Oman. The last inhabitants moved to a new village nearby or passed away c. 1975. Restoration work has recently begun on the settlement.

The 'Mausoleum of Bibi Maryam' is an early 14th century mausoleum at the site of the ancient maritime city of Qalhat in the Sharqiya region of the Sultanate of Oman. It dates from a period when much of the coast of South-East Arabia was under the control of the island Kingdom of Hormuz, the royal family of which originally hailed from Qalhat.

'Images of Oman' contains shots taken at various places around the Sultanate of Oman over the past 10 years.

The gallery 'Abandoned Rooms' contains images of spaces where past generations lived and died and where some of their possessions still remain.

Enjoy!
