Izki could become a strategic place in the touristic tours being just 125km away from muscat, a 50 min drive on the highway 15.
\nThe restauration of part of the ancient city, the connection with the other interest points through designated paths, exploring the green oasis throughout outdoor activities, and
\ncreating a satelite resort, would generate a system capable of attracting tourism.
\n
\nThe actions to make this possible could be divided into 4 steps:
\n1. restoring 15% of the existing buidings could boost the ancient town\u2019s cultural value
\ncreating tourist oriented activities in the restored areas, such as museums, restaurants , shops,
\nand using more open areas to create plazas
\n2. designated paths could be created outside the ancient town\u2019s walls to connect different interest points, like the old market, the mosque, the green oasis, and the waterfront.
\n3. being part of the green oasis system and taking advantage of it\u2019s landscape value,
\nexploring the green oasis through sports activities could be an appealing way to discover its uniqueness.
\nSmall platforms for activities and wooden connection paths could be created for a better use of the land.
\n4. a resort should be built nearby. This new resort would include modern standard facilities, with a commercial and entertainment area.
\nThe resort would be easy to reach from muscat and it would include room units of 30-50sqm with private gardens\/terraces, water basins and canals and luxurious vegetation.
\n
\nThis macro analysis is aimed to show the feasibility of such an intervention.
\nThe presence of a new touristic resort would just make it even more appealing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
