Dubai Museum
Description
A trip to Dubai is not complete without visiting the Dubai Museum, located in the newly restored Al Fahidi Fort. Originally built in 1799 as a defense against foreign invasion, it was transformed into a museum in 1993 and allows visitors to delve into the rich and unique heritage of the city. Exhibitions offer visitors an insight into desert life, depicting traditional Arab homes, mosques, fishing, pearl diving and trade. One of the highlights at the museum is an exhibit featuring artifacts from excavated graves in the Emirates from the 3rd millennium BC.
Excellent value for money as the tickets are very cheap. Visit the place a lunch time in the middle of summer and it was lovely and cool. Loved the experience, seeing the history of the place represented through different means. Strongly recommend it. Also, kept my 7 years old interested
