1548865 SHARE
Dima W’attayeen is a wilayat in North Al Sharqiyah that borders Qurayat from north, Ibra from south, Al Qabil and Bidiya from east and Al Mudhaibi and Bidbid from west. The wilayat offers a flavour of Oman that is distinctively unique with its mountainous landscape, and yet so abundantly blessed with water.
It is the oddity of nature that makes a tour to this wilayat so rewarding, both for nature lovers and those looking for some off-road driving adventure. The name of Dima W’attayeen is traced to the collapse of Marib Dam as Arab tribes emigrated to other places. Among them people of Tay tribe that settled in Wadi Tayeen.
