Omani traditional games - folk traditions

An Omani  heritage group children is performing games while wearing beautiful clothes .

I frequently read or hear from Western tourists that "what makes Oman memorable is not the mountains, not the ocean, or the architecture, but the Omani people."

In memory of Roundabouts of Qatar

Roundabouts in Qatar: An Overlooked heritage? from UCL-Q Students on Vimeo.

Roundabout used to be famous and typical in Qatar . Some of my friends were scared to drive because of that in this country . Those thigs are over - everywhere crosses and traffic lights now . This slide show is in the memory of those roundabouts .It is now the past the heritage of this country .

So that was my visit at the heritage village .It is worth going there : you can taste local dishes and listen to local music , you can imagine yourself into an era which has dissapeared by the oil and gas revenues .
It is found in the middle of the Corniche next to Al Bida park .I think it is only at great occasions when it is working .It was a spring cultural festival last week here .
