Introduction
Although still not very touristy, Fujairah is an Emirate full of surprises and exotic treasures. Ancient peoples lived and traded in this territory already four thousand years ago, and even today there are archaeological finds that tell its story.
Inside there are fortresses and an ancient mosque with a sober and particular appearance. But the real jewels of Fujaira are the Wadis, dry rivers that offer a bewitching view and which look like the fabulous sets of some adventure film produced in Hollywood. Furthermore, inside they are home to many animal species including amphibians, reptiles and birds.
Itinerary
𝐕𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐚 𝐚: Fujairah Museum
Just a little south of the Fort is this museum which has an excellent collection of artefacts, dating back to the Early Bronze Age, which were unearthed during archaeological excavations at Qidfa and Bithnah. Objects on display include weapons, painted pottery, carved soapstone vases and pre-Islamic silver coins. One of the museum's prized pieces, discovered in Qidfa, is a bowl made of ostrich eggs that dates back 2,200 years. There is also an interesting ethnographic section, with displays of daily life and craft work.
Duration: 1 hour
𝐕𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐚 𝐚: Fujairah Fort
Built in 1670, Fujairah Fort was severely damaged by a British attack in the early 20th century. Considered the oldest fort in the United Arab Emirates, it previously served as both a defensive building and a home for the ruling family. For many centuries it was the only stone structure along the town's coast. The construction has three main sections, several halls, a square tower and two round ones.
In recent years, it has been completely restored and brought back to its former glory. The area surrounding the fort has become an archaeological site. Here you will see restored old houses, reviews of traditional life and an explanation of the Al Yazrah irrigation system that was used by farmers in their fields.
