Muscat:
As promised by the organisers, the Muscat Festival was off to a rousing start, Wednesday. People of all nationalities thronged the venue with their families to get a glimpse of the rich Omani art, culture and heritage.
Much to the delight of the crowd, particularly children, circus artistes performed a number of acrobatic tricks. The crowd also had photo-op with some of the clowns, while music connoisseurs lent their ears to the traditional Omani folk singers. People whose taste buds start tickling just at the sight of delicacies, were seen 'laying their hands' on the freshly cooked Omani food.
As the Festival unfolds over a period of one month, people are waiting with bated breath for the entertainment shows, pyrotechnics, fireworks, laser shows and carnivals, and of course, the sight of top cyclists of Tour de France, who will be a treat to watch.
