Each year the natural phenomena of the monsoon season in Salalah casts a magical spell on visitors from far and near. The government has resolved to complement the season with varied programs that stir the interests of people. Although the Salalah Tourism Festival (formerly known as the Kharif festival), along with others were introduced as part of the monsoon specialities in the previous years, the authorities thought it fit to launch a carnival and shopping festival this year to further enhance the khareef attraction. The much-awaited carnival was a runaway success with large crowds thronging both sides of the 3-km route through which the carnival participants paraded—providing entertainment, music and dance.
