Unique images of Oman taken following the explosive development which began with the accession to power of Sultan Qaboos bin Said who replaced his father in a bloodless coup in 1970. Today the country has become a popular destination for cruise ships and tourists seeking escape from the northern winter. Most visitors find it fulfills their dream of Old Araby because in the process of progress, Oman has been careful to preserve its past. Historic buildings have been restored, local crafts encouraged and tribal traditions maintained. More recently Oman has acted as a mediator in conflicts in the Middle East. Sultan Qaboos (1940-2020).
