Oman today_ Maabilah is one of the westernmost areas of Muscat and part of the Seeb region. The Seeb Palace, also known as Bait Al Barakah, is a royal palace that serves as the official residence of the Sultan of Oman. It is also home to the Royal Symphony Orchestra of Oman and is located between Maabilah and the western district of Barka. Maabilah is also famous for its major shopping centers, such as Muscat Mall and the large buildings of the Nesto and Lulu hypermarkets. A significant portion of this area is still under development, with many apartment buildings that resemble the residential complexes around Tehran. To the north of Maabilah lies one of Muscat’s most beautiful beaches, known as Shatti Seeb. This beach is an ideal location for a leisurely walk or family outings.
