MUSCAT -- 'Mayar Al-Khoudh', a luxury residential project by Al Balushi Investments, was formally launched at a glittering ceremony held at Shangri-La's Barr Al Jissah Resort & Spa.

Prospective investors and special invitees also attended the lavish launch ceremony.

Guests had the opportunity to assess the high standards and overall ethos of the Mayar Al-Khoudh project. The backdrop to the event was a delightful waterfall complete with a lazy river spanned by a bridge that visitors had to cross to get to the launch venue. In attendance were a harpist and oudh player who lent a magical quality to the evening. An artist recreated the beauty of Mayar Al-Khoud on a sheet of canvas, while the Master of Ceremonies elaborated on the features that provide a distinctive element to the the residential project.
