Що подивитися в Шарджі

Sharjah's Absolute Essentials

Sharjah's cultural landscape is defined by its deep commitment to heritage and education. This selection includes the Sharjah Museum of Islamic Civilization, housed in a renovated souq, and the 19th-century Al Hisn Fort. Visitors can explore the archaeological findings at Meliha, view contemporary Arab art at the Barjeel Art Foundation, or visit the King Faisal Mosque, one of the region's largest. The emirate also balances history with leisure at the Al Majaz waterfront and the desert landscapes of Big Red.
