The Museum entrance
No historical museum is complete without cannon entrances!
Beached boats.. mmm
There are many tents you can never fit into
Looks like this won't be much of a use... :P
Few of the air conditioned displays
Inside the main fort
Lets head indoors!
An open well, with ground water too!
Inside the traditional straw houses
Inside a living area
The houses are surprisingly cool under the sun
Hey another beached boat... :P
A golden cannon is always cooler
The displays follow on to an underground basement
It touches much ont he past developments and history of the dubai and the creek
With several walk through displays to offer
Various interesting setups
All in much needed air-conditioned comfort! :)
A remake of a town walk, with several stores of an era forgone
featuring displays of commercial...
And daily dosmestic life, like in the markets
2 funky dudes... :3
Teaching with a stick. :P
A display of traditional clothing
Sir 10,000 AED for the Camel? Mmmm
Underground oasis are always welcomed!
Very tempted to find RPG loot in these jars.
These jewels gives the wearer +5 fire resistance
A flashed shot in complete darkness
Such as Dhow boat building
random Dhow wrecks...
fishing, and pearl diving
Here, we have a display of creek activities
More pots to keep you all pottery
A display of traditional burial rites
Did I mention POTS?
Featuring several prized archaeological displays
The displays end with a hall
With lots of Shiny stuff! :3
No musesum is complete without their own gift shop!
You gotta get used to beached boats here in the Desert
Not that Jeff has a problem with that!
Moving onto the Creek for the next part of our tour
Here we are at the Dubai...
Gravity check!
Bastakia!
Sprinkler pipelines are a common sight through the arid lands
Which plays a critical role in maintaining greenery here
