Al Maamoura Palace

Al Maamoura Palace (قصر المعمورة العامر ) is the Sultan of Oman's residence in Maʽmurah just outside of Salalah. The palace is surrounded by extensive gardens with a falaj running through the grounds.

History
During the Dhofar War, it was occupied by rebels for a short time and then housed an artillery battery.

Razat Farm
Sultan Said bin Taimur began the farm adjacent to Al Maamoura Palace to figure out how to grow tropical and sub-tropical fruits in the Dhofar region. It is now under the jurisdiction of the office of Royal Court Affairs. In March 2024, they announced that specialists at the farm cultivated a new type of banana plant called the Razat Banana that is a subspecies of the Williams Cavendish banana.
