Why Walk Sharjah

Sharjah was named the Cultural Capital of the Arab World by UNESCO and has invested heavily in arts, heritage, and museums. The restored Heart of Sharjah heritage area preserves traditional coral-stone architecture, and the city's museum district houses collections ranging from Islamic art to contemporary installations. Sharjah offers the cultural depth that its flashier neighbor Dubai sometimes lacks.
