Historical Town, Stone Town

We did a tour of Stone Town and took great pics of this Historical Town. Part of the building collapsed a few weeks ago so now they are restoring but will take a long time , luckily we saw it in all its glory before the disaster. The history of this building is nice to hear. But the building itself is not accessible an#nat#awesomepic ionalpark d was surrounded with fences. Its old and needs to be restored. In the end its just one of the stops on you#themepark r tour through town, nothing special.This building was closed at the time of my visit in September 2020 for remodeling as I understand financed by the Sultan of Oman. But you can still get a great visual of the building from the streets as it towers over the city. I’m not sure when it will reopen. This is well advertised, but apparently has been under renovation for some time, so you can only walk past the building and it is covered in scaffolding. There are also sections closed of to the public for the same reason. It must have been spectacular in its day
