When people of Nizwa pooled their efforts to restore the old wall around Al Shahba Fort, it not only became a symbol of pride of the Wilayat of Nizwa, but also a role model which inspires future generations to preserve the rich heritage of Al Dakhiliyah Governorate. The restored wall was opened on January 8 in the village of Al Aqur. Al Aqur Wall and Al Aqur Square is about 1,950 metres long, of which about 700 metres has been restored. The opening ceremony was attended by Ibrahim bin Said al Kharousi, Under-Secretary of the Ministry of Heritage and Tourism for Heritage.
