The al Alam Palace and the al Mirani Fort
Our next stop was the Sultan’s Palace. The palace sat behind impressive gates and was at one end of a large open space.
The square which was flanked by buildings all around it.
I was asked to snap images of a few the visitors with the Palace in the background.
As we drove to the al Mirani Fort we stopped by the sea wall to look at the side of the palace facing the sea.
The palace could be seen to have gun emplacements that faced out to sea. Behind us we could see the al Jalali Fort.
In front of us was the al Mirani Fort.
Around the coast we could see the naval base.
The road around the fort was narrow and had a lot of parked cars. We stopped by a tunnel under the fort so I could grab some more images.
