A small museum located in Al Shindagha, an old neighborhood of Dubai. Very small, with not many exhibits. The visit begins with the projection of a short film, from which you learn information about the archaeological site Saruq Al Hadid. You need about 30 minutes to visit it.
One of the most interesting museums in Dubai! The excavations at Saruq Al-Hadid site shed a new light on the history of the UAE .
The museum displays thousands of golden, bronze and iron pieces, discovered at the Saruq Al Hadid archaeological site in the Rub al Khali desert, south of the emirate of Dubai. The Arabian Peninsula’s Iron Age at the newly-opened museum in Dubai’s Historical District - a confluence of the past and the present. Location near Shindaga. Huge mature ficus tree in the courtyard adds to the ambience and shade. The work is immense and will probably take decades to unearth. Dubai archaeological museum Museum related to UAE history, boating, food courts.
Interesting old manuscripts and weapons. But limited numbers and not amusing for children. So if your are looking for a day out with kids, this should not be on top of your list. They will get bored easily. But very good for older adults or those interested in history.
Over expectation. Something interesting you may never seen are waiting for you to figure out. Thank the patient guide Waleed, Shouq and also the security. Had a nice day even didn’t dig anything out from the sand.
