Salalah, the capital of the Dhofar region, is a colourful, subtropical city that owes much of its character to Oman’s former territories in East Africa. Salalah is known as the "perfume capital of Arabia" and "the attar capital of Oman".

The city is a tourism destination due to the natural attractions of the nearby mountains and the magnificent frankincense trees lining mountain wadi courses. The country side is green and you can find the herds of cattles there. The beautiful beaches and coastline are also major attractions for scuba diving and bird watching. Flying into Salalah from Muscat, especially during the khareef, it is hard to imagine that Oman’s first and second cities share the same continent.
