Oman’s Ministry of Heritage and Tourism is set to launch the first phase of Oman Botanic Garden – billed as one of the world’s largest such facilities – by the end of this year.
Spread over a 4.3 million sq m area in the sultanate’s Al Khoudh region, the Oman Botanic Garden will have a range of tourist attractions such as cable cars, nurseries, visitor centre, research centre, field study centre, habitat gardens, habitat pavilions, play areas, and family zones for fun and relaxation, reported the Muscat Daily.
It will showcase all the native plant species of Oman in carefully created natural habitats, including bone-dry deserts to lush green monsoon forests
