B) Like many of its Gulf neighbors, Oman has a sizable oil industry, but it’s far more conservative with its riches. As a result, the country is rather understated. It has generally avoided the flashy shopping malls, lavish skyscrapers and overt displays of decadence shown elsewhere in the region in favor of controlled growth while retaining the qualities for which it is renowned, namely a rich cultural heritage, a strong sense of identity and warm hospitality.
