The story

The Muttrah area, situated at the core of Oman's largest harbor, is a place that is celebrated for its rich history of commercial trade, a characteristic port, and long-standing fishery traditions. The city of Muttrah is home to the original fish market, which was built in 1960, and has been a central part of the local community for decades. Today, the new fish market stands as a tribute to both the past and the future of Oman, as it marks a continuity of the region's trade and fishing traditions.

The newly constructed fish market is designed to accommodate the growing needs of Oman's fish industry, which has seen a significant increase in recent years. The market is located in close proximity to the city's original fish market, and is set to provide visitors with a unique opportunity to experience Oman's rich cultural heritage.
