Jabel Shams or Jebel Shams جَبَل شَمْس the mountain of the sun - #Oman #timelapse #sunset #astrophotography
This is the highest peak in the Arabian Peninsula, rising to an altitude of 3,004 meters above sea level, and has a number of versants (slopes) and summits. Every time a tourist reaches a versant, he’ll find that it leads him to another until he reaches the mountain peak.
Life on the summit is different from what most people are used to, as the weather is mild in summer and cold in winter. Close to the peak lies a deep chasm called the "An Nakhr Balcony", one of the most beautiful places tourists visit. It is a deep ravine in the heart of the rocks that can be viewed from the top, which directly overlooks the ravine. At the bottom of the ravine rock formations chiseled into different forms by erosion lie at breathtaking depth.
Jabal Shams is so-called because it is the first place to greet sunlight at dawn and the last to say farewell at dusk.
