There are quite much of activities in and around the city. Indoor game activities would be found mostly at Qurum (Shati) area. The outside suburbs near to Muscat are "Sifs", Yiti", "Bahla" and "Nizwa" regions in specific, however, as you explore more and more, the country has much more to offer with the scenic stuff. Most of the places comprise of beaches and mountains in either direction.
