Sharjah offers a number of attractions to visitors and residents alike.

I have recently arrived in Sharjah from India with my family for a couple of weeks. I am loving this place. Weather is really pleasant here. I have seen a few places in Sharjah with my friend and discovered that the emirate of Sharjah is a wonderful place for art and culture as well. Lots of places here are amazing like Sharjah Museum of Islamic Civilization, Sharjah Calligraphy Museum, Bait Al Naboodah, Sharjah Maritime Museum, Sharjah Heritage Museum and many more such attractions. I was amazed to visit these places. I appreciate the way Sharjah has preserved its glorious past for the future generation. I felt nostalgic after visiting those places.

I felt I have reversed the time machine to go into the past.  For a minute it looked as if I have returned to those olden days. I happen to meet many visitors also who had come to visit museums from America, Africa, Pakistan, Madagascar and Philippines and they all were extremely happy to be there. Everybody had the same feeling and we all were awestruck.  We did not feel coming out of the museum. I had heard about the beauty of Sharjah from my friends who had visited earlier, now I also witnessed it. I feel I will come again next year with more days in hand. I want to explore all the emirates.
