Wadi Fanja and the town Fanja, Sultanate of Oman. The picturesque village of Fanja is situated next to an extensive date palm grove that runs alongside Wadi Fanja. It is about 70km from Muscat, and the approach is one of the most scenic views that Oman has to offer. From the top of a hill you have spectacular views of the surrounding scenery and the wadi below. Fanja is known for its pottery. Visitors can wander round the market bargaining for locally produced pots, local fruits and vegetables, honey and woven goods made from palm leaves.
