What to Do in Old Dubai: Our Guide

"Once home to a monarch and an arsenal of artillery, Al Fahidi Fort became the site of the Dubai Museum when the U.A.E. was established in 1971. The collection primarily consists of artifacts like pottery and weapons, but the sea wing offers perspective into the ocean's role in the city's development, from its shipbuilding heritage to a history of pearl-diving in the Gulf." - Dylan Essertier, Laura Ratliff
