Oman has one of the hottest climates in the world, and receives little rainfall; in mountain area there is a bit different climate with more rain.
But in general temperatures around 50 C (120 F) in a hot season (from May to September) are not unusual.
So I wasn’t surprised to see in Oman many different jug monuments. At the end, who doesn’t dream about water when it’s so extremely hot? 🙂

Klimat panujący w Omanie należy do jednych z najgorętszych na świecie, z małą ilością opadów. W górach sytuacja wygląda troszeczkę inaczej i tam pada deszcz od czasu do czasu. Jednak nikogo nie dziwią temperatury około 50 C występujące od maja do września.
Mnie natomiast nie zdziwiła duża ilość pomników przedstawiających rozmaite dzbanki, któż nie marzy o wodzie gdy panuje taki skwar? 🙂
Tellement beau et original, superbe! Bise et bonne soirée toute douce!
Thank you! 🙂
A może to na oliwę? 😛
😀
That’s an attractive installation. 🙂
🙂
I would be too. 🙂

Oh gosh — that is HOT! Nice shot.
it is, much too much for me…
Pooh … 50 degrees is very hot! A beautiful picture.
it’s much too hot for me!
Wow, 50 stopni? Kurde, lubię ciepło, ale to już ekstremum… ?
A sam pomnik robi wrażenie?
dla mnie też zdecydowanie za dużo 🙂
That’s beautiful! However, as a pale-skinned Scot who burns instantly and wilts in anything over 20C I think I’m unlikely ever to see it myself! So thanks for showing it to me.
I believe during winter should be there very pleasant 🙂
Beautiful picture of the three pots.
Thank you! 🙂
I like the shot. 🙂 My friend Catbird lived and worked there for a couple of years and she loved the place.
Thank you! 🙂
How did you come to grips with these temperatures??
it was tough…
Może i dziwne te pomniczki, ale jeśli wszystkie wyglądają tak ładnie, jak ten, to może nimi być pokryty cały Oman jak dla mnie 😀
😀
Very beautiful photo!
Temperatures as high as 50 degrees sound like hell to me. I remember the news talking about melting roads in India when the temperature was that high. Do they have similar problems in Oman? What season did you go there?
I think it’s easier with roads, when the temperatures are always high; I always had the impression it’s more problematic with a continental climate, so temperatures from about minus 30C up to +30C.
Fantastyczne zdjęcie!
Dziękuję! 🙂
Really beautiful
Thank you! 🙂
Se c’è un clima troppo caldo non fa per me.
Però le caraffe sono belle 🙂
Ciao, Pat
I also don’t like these temperatures…
peccato che siano vuote!
that’s true! 🙂
Temperatures of 50 degrees would seem unbearable to people from cooler climes, like me. But the jug monument looks attractive, and a reminder of such a valuable resource as water.
Thank you! I agree with you!
And especially when I travel, colder is better 😉
The jug picture is so nice. I love to see them and I have pictures of them in a cart in turkey, lying by a pathway in Israel and on a wall in Italy. They make the greatest pictures.
I’m happy to hear it! 🙂
