Al Shindagha Museum Dubai Tickets

    The Al Shindagha Museum is the most immersive cultural experience in Dubai and is located along the historic Dubai Creek. It is a story of the city, a collection of 22 exquisitely renovated heritage houses, each telling a different story of how Dubai became what it is today, a modest fishing and trade village, then a modern global metropolis.

    The museum is a reminder of the origin of the ruling Al Maktoum family and a great way to see the roots of Dubai and a curious insight into the Emirati traditions, crafts and ways of life. The museum is located in a serene creek-side area and is the perfect destination to visit by culture enthusiasts, families, students and photography lovers who want to explore Old Dubai.
