Location?

From my two-time vacations to Oman I once visited this Mosque or one very similar. I have never been to Muscat, instead spending both my visits in and near Salalah. The page for Salalah states the Grand Mosque is located there, yet this page as well as Muscat's own, and indeed the official Omani tourism website all cite Muscat as the location of the Grand Mosque. Am I just going crazy, or is there a major mistake here? 212.152.3.114 (talk) 00:00, 14 December 2012 (UTC)

Just easy: There are different "Sultan Qaboos Mosques" all over Oman, e.g. in Salalah or Nizwa. However, there is only one "Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque" and this mosque is located in Muscat. Hemeier (talk) 20:38, 25 December 2012 (UTC)
