The place was empty, maybe because of the Ramadan or maybe due to the summer season. Nice place to visit when is open. Paying a visit here, the tourists will have the chance to learn something about Arabic culture, as the village dates back to as early as 17th century

A beautiful and historic place to visit in the UAE. Its history of over 300 years is definitely worth a visit. Jazirat al-Hamra is the only historical pearling town in the Gulf, which survived the modernisation and fast development after the discovery of oil. While the majority of buildings are modest summer and winter houses surrounding a courtyard, examples of rich residences and homes of pearl traders can also be found. Today, Jazirat al-Hamra’s narrow alleyways connect a conglomerate of courtyard houses, suq buildings, mosques, and a fort with watchtowers, all built from coral stones and fossil beach rock in layer technique.

I was looking forward in seeing this place but once we drove there, we couldnt go in. They are in the process of doing a parking lot. Im guessing to make the place more suitable for tourist. Overall the area is not very nice but i will go again next time to check out the place

The place is on the island of Hamra in the Emirate of Ras al-Khaimah and the idea of ​​the heritage village is very beautiful after the restoration of some old houses, but it needs a lot of activities to attract visitors

A not completely deserted village. 3-4 houses are still inhabited. It is interesting to stroll through there. Most of the buildings have only ruins. The paths are not cleared or prepared for tourists.There is a parking lot nearby, but it is not part of the attraction.

To see, I believe they must continue with the restoration and reconstruction of the village, to confirm the little that remains of the past.
