Riyam Park Monument, Muscat, Muscat Governorate, Oman
Beyond Mutrah Fort, the corniche leads to the leafy Al Riyam Park, with fine views of the harbour from the giant ornamental incense burner. There is a small fun fair popular with locals at weekends. The park is on the path of a popular hike that used to link Mutrah with Muscat proper. Opening times are a bit hit-or-miss.
