Dubai Museum

Housed in the al Fahidi Fort built in 1787, the Dubai Museum is the oldest existing building in Dubai. Stop in for a slice of authentic Emirati history in a modern city .

The fort is small, but once get into the underground museum , it is big with a small village of good illustration of dubai traditional livings.

Well worth the visit & much bigger than I expected! Entrance fee is only 3 dhs for adults. Closest metro station is Al Fahidi. Enjoy! :)
