What do you know about Dubai Museum?

Arabiaweather.com - Ismail Qasimi - Visitors to Dubai always think of skyscrapers, shopping places, and various water and entertainment parks.. But there are also unique museums that you must visit during your trip, especially the Dubai Museum.

Make sure that when you visit the Dubai Museum, you will go back in time through many displays that depict life in this city for you before oil was discovered and completely changed the way of life in it.

The museum is located in Al Fahidi Fort in the Bur Dubai area, and it is in itself a very important historical landmark in this modern city, as its construction dates back to the year 1787 AD, and thus it is the oldest building standing today in Dubai.

The Dubai Museum is the oldest in the city and was opened in 1971. It includes a number of holdings, artifacts and art galleries that depict homes, mosques, markets, farms and desert and marine life existing in Dubai before it became a global city.

And because the activity of diving to extract pearls has always been an important social and economic activity in Dubai, just like the Gulf countries, the museum gave it an important share within the museum, and the same applies to other cultures that the UAE worked with during its trade with Africa and Asia in the ancient era.

The museum displays a lot of recently discovered antiquities, which will assure you that Dubai is not just a modern city.
