American University of Sharjah

Reviewed By Joseph52

I have had the honor to help many Saudi students join this prestigious University in Sharjah, now certified by Georgetown University, USA. At the start, AUS had coaching from my own "alma mater" with success as the student exceeded the coach. Highly recommended for your children and for the large campus.

Heart of Sharjah

Welcome to the Heart of Sharjah In every city, there is a place that sets its heartbeat and defines the pulse of the city, reflecting its history, echoing its ethos and mirroring its spirit. That's what Heart of Sharjah is. A project interwoven into the very history and fabric of Sharjah. Heart of Sharjah is the largest historical preservation and restoration project in the region. Planned over a 15 year period, to be completed by 2025, it seeks to revitalize the heritage district as a vibrant cultural destination by unraveling a glorious past - restoring historical buildings, constructing new structures following traditional Sharjah architecture and transforming them into hotels, restaurants, cafes, art galleries and markets, where the current generations and the future generations can experience Sharjah's cultural and social fabric.

Fossil Rock

Reviewed By jasandandreain - Dubai, United Arab Emirates

UAE’s history frozen in time! Fossil Rock is an amazing destination in the UAE for so many reasons: 1. It’s only about 1 hour from Dubai (2 hours from Abu Dhabi) 2. You can dune bash your way there (or for the non 4x4s, you can stick to the gravel roads) 3. Great for camping! 4. Hiking (we didn’t have time, so we are definitely going back) 5. Phenomenal views - dunes, sunset and sunrise 6. It’s full of fossils trapped in time! The formation reveals information about the planet and early species, with marine fossils dotting the crevices.

Flag Island

A touch of wonder in a wide and beautiful area for friends and families, especially couples to visit. If there is a concert going on, you can listen for free while enjoying fresh scenery under the UAE Flag.
