This
unexplored jewel of Arabia is a destination
waiting to be discovered. The Hajar Mountains
are rising majestically on the way east
and you will see valleys running down to
the sea. All the way you can spot ancient
forts and castles and little palm groves,
which are spending shadow to the cattle.
This
full-day tour starts with a visit to the
Friday Market situated on the main road
to the town of Fujairah, where you will
find traditional items including potteries
and carpets. Our next stop will be the Bithna
Fort, which has been built for protection
long time ago.
Our
trip will continue to Fujairah Heritage
Village, which portrays the traditional
life of the people of the Emirates. Exhibits
include traditional houses, cooking utensils,
farming tools and other items as well as
the Al Yazrah system used for irrigating
fields.
After
a visit to the Ain Al Madhab Gardens, you
will have a short lunch break at one of
the beach hotels. Afterwards we head off
to the scenic fishing village of Dibba.
Along the way, we will stop at the Badiya
Mosque, UAE's oldest place of worship. It
is also known as the 'Ottoman Mosque",
which shows an unique design with four small
domes held up by a massive central pillar.
Climb the hill to see the two small watchtowers
and view the small farms scattered around
in a beautiful mountainous scenery. On the
direct road we will return to Dubai.
