Fascinating Middle East Destinations For Those in Love

Are you looking to rejuvenate, enhance, or enjoy your love life? What expectations are you having for your upcoming holidays? Thinking about the Middle East will give you a refreshing shot at your relationship. Forget what you hear about this region – the wars and endless turmoil. Tucked within this largely Muslim region are gems of locations that will appeal to you. What’s more? They are all safe. 

Oman

Oman is an exquisite location to visit and enjoy with your beau. Though it is a desert, both of you will have fun on its long beaches bordering the vast Indian Ocean. The friendly and inviting locals will make it easy for you to blend in as you unwind. Here are a few factors that make this an irresistible place to visit:

  • Strategic location along the coast: there is Sawadi Beach where you can enjoy water sports and have a quiet picnic together. 
  • Natural beauty: includes dramatic mountains such as Hajar and Jebel Akhdar. It is home to the Oryx.
  • Scenic landscape: experience this in places like the Musandam, Nahkhl’s hot springs, and Bimmah Sinkhole.
  • Hospitable locals: who will give you a taste of mouthwatering cuisine and explain their interesting traditions.

How about catching up with Lebanese history at the Martyrs’ Square? This landmark is a reminder of the executions during Ottoman’s reign. Stroll along the waterfront for a cool evening breeze. In addition, do not shy away from the nightlife. It’s vibrant.
