Muscat: Under the patronage of His Excellency Dr. Mohammed bin Nasser Al Zaabi, Secretary General of the Ministry of Defense, the Ministry of Transport, Communications, and Information Technology, in collaboration with the National Survey Authority and Google, has launched the first phase of a Virtual Tour project.
This initiative aims to provide a unique virtual experience, allowing users worldwide to explore Oman's breathtaking landscapes, historical landmarks, and modern infrastructure.
