A sophisticated society that welcomes all, Dubai’s rich culture has

historical elements ranging from Bedouin life with its traditional arts and

crafts to ancient sites and archaeological finds are a must see.

Dubai grew from the area around the Dubai Creek and became a port on

the trade route between Mesopotamia and the Indus Valley. Hundreds

of ancient artefacts have been found at sites around the emirate and are

housed in the archaeological section of the Dubai Museum.

The roots of modern Dubai, however, can be traced back to the 1830s.

Settled by the Al Maktoum dynasty, an arm of the Bani Yas tribe, the

emirate grew from a small fishing village on the Shindagha peninsula to

the modern metropolis it is today. But Emiratis have deep ties to the city’s

rich and colourful history, which is being preserved and promoted with

well-deserved pride .

We invite you to behold the charms of such a city.

In Dubai, witness the marvel of the true

Arabian Civilization
