Majlis al Jinn, which translates to “Meeting Place of the Spirits”, is
one of the world's ten largest cave chambers. It is situated in Oman,
southeast of Muscat, and is notable for its isolated and relatively
inaccessible location. The only entrances to Majlis al Jinn are small
openings formed by rainwater erosion atop the remote Selma Plateau,
which forms the peak of the cave’s magnificent freestanding domed roof.
The sheer size of the chamber, when contrasted with its unassuming
exterior, renders it a unique natural wonder.
