Al Khor Mosque, entry

This beautiful mosque, commonly known as the "Mosque of the Family" in reference to the royal family of Oman, was located in old Muscat and unlike most, was open to non-Muslims certain hours of the day, Saturday-Thursday. Unfortunately, we were there at the wrong time and never managed to get back when it was open.
