Renting traditional Omani attire in Jasab is an unforgettable way to immerse yourself in the rich and ancient culture of Oman. Create lifelong memories!
Tour Details
The best way to truly understand a culture is to immerse yourself in it. If you're in Jasab, you can enjoy an unforgettable experience by trying on traditional Omani attire. We'll meet you at the Atana Musandam Hotel, where you'll select your favorite outfit and learn how to wear it.
For men, the Omani national dress includes the dishdasha, a long, collarless tunic that typically reaches the knees. While usually white, it can also come in shades of brown, purple, or black. This elegant robe is paired with the muzzar (turban), assa (walking stick), and the khanjar (ceremonial dagger).
For women, the traditional attire consists of the sirwal, a long dress worn over trousers, complemented by the lihaf, a vibrant headscarf. These ensembles are made from brightly colored fabrics and paired with sandals. To complete the look, you'll adorn yourself with intricate jewelry, cosmetics, and handmade ornaments, such as the batoola – a silver forehead ornament traditionally worn at weddings and celebrations. Did you know the batoola symbolizes beauty and status in Omani culture?
After about 30 minutes of capturing stunning photos of you in your traditional attire, we'll bid you farewell and conclude the activity.
