Salalah in southern Oman is one of the strangest places I've ever visited — a land of green mountains, waterfalls, mist and fast-flowing streams just a few miles from the Arabian desert.

High above Oman's deserts lies Jebel Akhdar, the legendary Green Mountain. Join me on a journey through dramatic canyons, ancient villages, terraced orchards and breathtaking mountain landscapes to discover one of the Middle East's most surprising travel destinations.
