Al Fahidi Historic District in Dubai

• It was my amazing journey towards Dubai from UK.
  I was there in last month I enjoyed a lot. But I
  never forget the real place Al Fahidi Historic
  District. I booked ticket and cheek the Med-View
  Flight Price. Al Fahidi Historical Region is one
  of the eldest heritage sites in Dubai and the
  last wind barbican quarter left on the Arab side
  of the Gulf. Classy houses with uneven walls
  defensive the privacy of the wealthy relations
  within became a symbol of the Al Fahidi
  Historical Region area.

• Wind barbicans topped these walls, tricking the
  wind and channeling it down into the house as an
  effective form of early air training. Inner
  courtyards, shady and highly decorated, provided
  a sharp contrast to this outer impenetrability.
  Wandering around Al Fahidi Historical District,
  its easy to transportation yourself back to a
  past era. These old buildings have been reformed
  into shady tea shops, art arcades and quirky
  slight workshops making Al Fahidi Past Region
  the faultless home to while away a few hours.
  Traffic disappears to a quiet hum in the complex
  lanes of this nicely reinstated heritage area
  formerly recognized as the Bastakia Quarter. Its
  thin walking lanes are flanked by sand-colored
  houses outdid with wind towers, which deliver
  natural air-conditioning.

• Today, there are about 50 structures containing
  galleries, craft shops, cultural exhibits,
  courtyard cafes, art colonnades and two boutique
  hotels. The quarter was constructed in the early
  1900's by merchants from the Persian town of
  Baste who established in Dubai to take benefit of
  tax breaks decided by the sheikh. By the 1970's,
  however, the structures had fallen into disorder
  and inhabitants began moving on to newer, more
  comfortable neighborhoods. Devoted locals,
  expatriates and even Prince Charles prevented the
  area's destruction in the 1980's. Hidden within
  the reinstated maze, which is effortlessly
  explored on an adrift wander. These places are
  best to see.
