Nestled under Oman’s Jebel Akhdar mountains, the Birkat al Mouz Ruins (Harat Al Siybani) provide a glimpse into the region’s historical past. Located above the village of Birkat al Mouz, the site features collapsed mudbrick houses and a UNESCO-protected falaj irrigation channel. These ancient structures wind their way up to a crumbled watchtower, which offers panoramic views of the ruins, palm groves, and the village below. Visitors can explore the remnants of this once-thriving settlement, imagining the daily life of its former inhabitants.
