Nizwa - A Modern Heritage Village

I just thing about writting something which i heard, seen the places where i lived and loved to live by. Am just crossing a year stay at Nizwa, a Place in Oman about 185KM frm cpaital Muscat.
Nizwa is one of the oldest cities in Oman and it was once a center of trade, religion, education and art. Its Jama (grand mosque) was formerly a center for Islamic learning. Nizwa acquired its importance because it has been an important meeting point at the base of the Western Hajar Mountains.
The Importa places to noter down are Nizwa Fort and Souq and the Falaj in and around of Nizwa. The pople who have seen Tamil Movie " Deepavali " can see the Full song taken in and around of this Fort.
You can get more information from http://www.nizwa.net/oman/explorer/places/nizwafort/nizwafort.html.
Touristers who visit Muscat, should see this place in and around.

Thining of writing a Lot but single page is not enough.
