Jalali Fort History photo copyrighted by: Galen R. Frysinger Al Jalali Fort was hastily built partly because of persistent threats from Persian naval forces seeking
to dislodge the Portuguese from their stronghold in Muscat.
From its vantage position atop a rocky outcrop, the fort commands unparalleled views of the
harbour and the old city, including Muscat's most prestigious landmark — His Majesty the
Sultan's Al Alam Palace.
