Your first stop is the Bait Adam Museum, which is privately owned by Mr. Latif. You will be welcomed by the owner who is also the curator and a man passionate about preserving and displaying some of Oman's history and culture. There are swords, guns, pieces of armour, jewlery, coins, maps, paintings and large black and white photos of old Muscat in his personal collection.
