Here you'll find the biggest collection of naturally grown Frankincense trees in the region. Experience the Frankincense and its use in the past as well as in the modern world. Next, visit the lost city of Ubar, another UNESCO World Heritage site, 175km away from Salalah. According to the myth, this legendary ancient kingdom was swallowed up by the desert.
