The Ministry of Tourism (MoT) is organizing a workshop on the sidelines of the Omani-Chinese Tourism Companies Forum in collaboration with the Oman-China Friendship Association and Oman Air on the 2nd of November. The event will take place at the Oasis Club Diwan of Royal Court, and will witness the participation of 16 major travel and tourism Chinese companies, as well as Omani companies in the tourism sector. 

The forum aims to strengthen mutual cooperation between the two countries in the tourism industry, by helping exchange expertise, discuss challenges and the ways to overcome them, and shed light on the facilities and services provided by the Sultanate for the Chinese tourism market. 

The forum also aims to introduce Oman as an ideal tourism destination, and showcase the efforts made by the MoT to promote Omani tourism products and services in the global markets. 

In lieu of the workshop, the Ministry of Tourism has also organized a tour around Muscat, Al Dakhilya, North and South A'Sharqiyah

 , for the Chinese delegation from the 28th October until the 3rd of November to give the participants a sense and feel of what the Sultanate has to offer in terms of culture and natural beauty. 

It is worth mentioning that the Chinese travel market is one of the most promising tourism markets from which Oman is seeking to benefit, by putting in place a robust promotional plan. The Sultanate today offers a number of travel and tourism companies, a vast airlines network, and many tourism projects, all of which present the perfect opportunity to attract more tourists from around the world.
