Sharjah Archaeology Museum

Visit the museum to learn more about the hardships of the Bedouins before they discovered the stone, and to see the beautiful Arab art, the superb craftsmanship, the ancient traditions and the daily lives of the locals.

Sharjah is next door to Dubai. I feel that Sharjah has not developed well in Dubai. There are no high-rise buildings. In Sharjah, you can learn more about the lives of UAE civilians. This museum also has a good explanation and is worth visiting!

Sheikh Sultan bin Mohammed Qasimi, the chief of Sharjah, has long attached importance to the development of education, Islamic culture and cultural relics protection. In 1998, UNESCO awarded Sharjah the title of “Cultural Capital of the Arab World” in recognition of its outstanding achievements in the field of literature and education.

The Sharjah Archaeological Museum is the archive of the Sharjah Emirati. It displays the environmental changes experienced by the residents of the Sharjah Emirati from the Stone Age to the present day through artifacts, coins, jewelry, pottery and ancient weapons. With this, we can also further understand the history, culture and economy of the United Arab Emirates, understand the historical links and changes between the emirates, and the shape of the entire pavilion is also very characteristic of Arab architecture.

A big museum with a rich collection of things as far away as the Stone Age, it feels great. A long experience, and something after the founding of modern Islam.
