Cave a Hidden WonderOman

Majlis al Jinn Cave is bloody hard to get to, and even harder to get inside of – but it’s so awesome we couldn’t resist including it in our must-do experiences. To get to the remotely located cave, you'll have take a five hour 4WD journey and vouch on good weather. If you want to abseil inside this cavernous chamber – which could comfortably accommodate 10 jumbo jets wing-to-wing – you can try your luck at obtaining a permit.

Unfortunately though, this cave is indefinitely closed for redevelopment to make it easily accessible to tourists. Be patient, and one day, you'll be able to explore this colossal wonder.
