Heritage and Diving Villages
Area: Bur Dubai, Dubai
Shindagha is living testimony of the government’s respect of Dubai’s past. Exhibitions in the Diving Village illuminate Dubai’s historical significance as a pearling nation while potters and weavers practice their traditional crafts at barasti stalls set up in the Heritage Village.
It’s particularly lively during the Dubai Shopping Festival, when you can enjoy a host of demonstrations ranging from traditional cookery training to desert life exhibitions, and parachuting shows to shipbuilding.
