About Sharjah 

Sharjah is particularly well suited to Muslim travellers who want a more relaxed, cultural and family-focused holiday in the UAE. The emirate has a strong Islamic identity, with mosques throughout the city, halal dining widely available and an atmosphere that feels noticeably quieter than neighbouring Dubai. Families can enjoy waterfront parks, museums, beaches, traditional markets and attractions designed for children, making it a good option for travellers looking for an easy-going break.

Culture is at the heart of a stay in Sharjah. Visit the impressive Sharjah Mosque, explore the Heart of Sharjah heritage district or discover Islamic art and history at the Sharjah Museum of Islamic Civilization. Travellers can also head beyond the city to discover desert landscapes and the emirate’s east-coast beaches. For families, couples and groups who value culture, convenience and a more traditional setting, Sharjah offers a rewarding alternative to the UAE’s larger resort cities.
