Bur Dubai is characterized by narrow alleys, historic buildings, and wind towers that now house galleries and museums. We recommend visiting the XVA Art Gallery, the Coin Museum, and the Sheikh Mohammed Centre for Cultural Understanding. Most importantly, explore the Al Fahidi Fort, built in 1787, now houses the famous Dubai Museum. After working up an appetite, you can have lunch or dinner at an Indian cuisine restaurant. They stand out in terms of both quantity and quality.

If you enjoyed this area, we suggest some of the best hotels for an overnight stay in this locality. You can stay at Novotel Bur Dubai, Four Points By Sheraton, Howard Johnson by Wyndham, Grand Excelsior Hotel, and many others. All of them stand out for their service quality and additional amenities.
