We found one open shop at the Shangri-La resort complex, in their “heritage village.” The owner was Kashmiri and quite an interesting guy who had lived in Oman for years. Here he is putting a traditional moussa on Tim. I ended up buying one of them for use as decoration but hadn’t realized just how big a 54 inch by 54 inch piece of cloth actually was! (That’s the standard size for these things.) We also bought some frankincense from him. I didn’t even know it still existed, but Oman has been producing it for millennia now (some is visible on top middle shelf in plastic containers).
