MUSCAT : H.E. Salem Al Mahrouqi, Minister of Heritage and Tourism, has said that the tourism sector in the country is well on a recovery path with several projects entering advanced stages of implementation. These projects are expected to add to the opportunities and experiences by integrating with other economic sectors.

“Development of public utilities are currently being implemented in a number of governorates with the support and partnership of Amram Company. These promise to be quality projects with foreign investments – implemented according to the approved programmes,” he said.

One of the projects, in particular, is the Al Buraimi Talalat project, which aims to provide hospitality, recreation and entertainment facilities. Work is also underway to develop Al-Abaila Park in Al Buraimi, which costs 700,000 riyals.

Besides, the Nizwa Gate development project in Al Dakhiliyah Governorate, which will include interactive platforms and digital panels to introduce the unique material and cultural history of the governorate, is also expected to come to fruition shortly.
