Kenya–Oman relations are bilateral relations between Kenya and Oman. ==History== Ties between Oman and Kenya date back to the 17th century when Mombasa and other coastal cities were occupied by the Sultanate of Oman. Mombasa and other coastal cities were occupied between 1698–1728, after which Mombasa was occupied for one year by the Portuguese and 1729–1824 where Mombasa was conquered by Britain and again between 1826-1887 where the territory was conquered by Britain again. Kenya's coastal strip was occupied by Oman for a total of 186 years. Kenya's coastal cities and towns still have traces of architecture and culture from Oman. Some of the residents of these cities can trace their ancestry. Mombasa, is Kenya's second largest city and Omani architecture and culture is evident in the city.〔Abhishek G Bhaya, (Muscat, Mombasa can be sister cities: Kenyan envoy ). September 28, 2011.
