Salalah is the 2nd largest city in Oman. Salalah is very cloudy during the monsoon Months of July and August, even thoush little rain falls. It's recognised for its banana plantations, Arabian Sea beaches and waters teeming with sea life. The area gained importance in ancient times because of its wealth of frankincense.
Frankincense(Luban) trees are native to this region, one of just a few places worldwide, and for this reason the city is often called the “perfume capital of Arabia.” The tomb of Prophet Ayub is on the beautiful Hills of Ittin.
