Your Experience

This city, rightly known as the Pearl of the Gulf, holds innumerable ancient charms waiting to be discovered by you. Head to the largest mosque in Sharjah, the King Faisal Mosque, where you will hear anecdotes about the rich heritage and history of the city while you admire carefully preserved and restored relics and artifacts of old, and other items that make up Islamic Heritage.

The next stop is the Fort of Sharjah, built in 1820 and the former home of the ruling family, where you will be able to marvel at the architecture as you learn about the customs and traditions of the people in this part of the world. Stop at the Sharjah Heritage Museum to learn about the traditional architecture of the Arabian Gulf before taking a leisurely stroll through the traditional souk Al Arsah. Indulge in a shopping spree at the Souk Al Marakazi where you can find all kinds of authentic carpets, jewelery, and handicrafts, native to the Emiratis before concluding your tour and heading back to the Dubai Mall.
