What is Ubar?
'''Ubar''' is a ruined city in [[Oman]]. [[England|English]] adventurer [[Ranulph Fiennes]] discovered the city in 1992. According to Nicolas Clapp, this probably is the lost city [[Iram of the Pillars]] the [[Qu'ran]] talks about. Today, ruins are left, which can be reached in a four-wheel drive. Part of the area forms the ceiling to underground vaults, which have collapsed. These vaults hold water supplies for a nearby settlement, which houses a small [[museum]].
