Dubai Museum

Outside the museum is a physical boat and some tools used before, there are some characters working in the shape, the Arab daily life is more real and restored to our eyes, the overall feeling is a bit rudimentary.

There is this museum in Dubai, and then you will find it is a country with some history, and it is strange why such a rich country does not invest more in building museums.

When our guide took us to the museum, I had no special feelings about this historical museum full of pictures and objects, but after listening to the introduction in detail, I knew a lot of the back stories.

It's a place with a strong sense of history, and it's built on the old site. In the third century B.C., Dubai was a small fishing village along the Dubai River. Under the leadership of the chieftain, the Dubai people fished and lived here, planted dates and did business. Gradually to this day - this is what we saw in the Dubai Museum this afternoon. The museum was built on the old site, with three tickets for Diram.

There are many introductions in the museum. Although I can't read the text, I can also understand Dubai's culture by looking at the real thing. The museum is a castle-like building with cannons at the door. It is cool to enter the museum. The air-conditioning temperature is very low. The comfortable temperature makes visitors happy to stay a little longer. An exhibition hall is an introduction to Dubai's weapons, musical instruments, bows and arrows. The castle, formerly the palace, fortress and sea defence, is the oldest building in Dubai. Walk into the museum, like entering the time tunnel, from the museum's open-air exhibition, you can see the ancient Arabs' previous housing patterns, including the earliest wind towers. Part of the indoor exhibition area is located on the ground floor of the castle. It is an antique market and an art museum that displays traditional Arab style, including ancient tomb bronzeware that has been around for thousands of years, which is worth slowly enjoying. And the Dubai Cultural Museum is also a wonderful military museum. As the crowd enters the downstairs, you can see the majesty of a large bird hovering in the air, representing the leap of Dubai, from a small country poor and backward in the desert, through the opening of oil and gas, it has become a rich country in the world. It's not an exaggeration to describe it in a terrific way. Downstairs is a relatively dim exhibition hall, using various craftsmen wax figures to create the development process as a small fishing village, relying on fishing, pearl picking to start, almost restore the scene at the time, can hear the sound of children singing in class, carpenter, blacksmith work sound, The lively market and the sound of running water, even on the ground is spread with sand, imitating the feeling of the desert! Bring me the most intuitive introduction through sound, light and electricity. When I came out, I saw local women wearing veils eating lunch. This scene was more shocking! Of course, the tour guide will also remind us not to take pictures, local customs should still be fully observed.

The museum is small, just near the Dubai River, where you can learn about Dubai's history. The museum was built in 1787 and was once a military fortress that guarded Dubai, and later built an art gallery to introduce the history of the Arab ancestors of the Bedouin. Dubai Museum is located in Afadi Castle (Al Fahidi Fort), the oldest building in Dubai. You can visit the antique merchant house in the museum and the lively antique market underground.
