Several interesting tourist sites have opened in the UAE. The whole family can admire the crocodiles, and go to the atmospheric historical museum or the theme park of active entertainment.
The whole family in the crocodile park
With each season, there are more and more reasons to come to the Emirates. In the UAE, with enviable regularity, new tourist sites appear that are interesting for both children and adults. Thus, the first Crocodile Park in the Middle East (Dubai Crocodile Park) was opened in Dubai.
On an area of 20,000 square meters, 250 Nile crocodiles live in specially created natural and climatic conditions. The largest of them is a 25-year-old male, reaching a length of 4.5 m. Dubai Crocodile Park visitors will have the opportunity to see these reptiles from different angles, including underwater – in a huge aquarium stylized as an African lake.
A walk through Dubai Crocodile Park will be interactive: multimedia panels with information in English about the life of crocodiles are placed along the entire route.
The Natural History Museum, which is also dedicated to crocodiles, is also worth a visit. Here you can see the laying of crocodile eggs and all stages of development of the reptile until the moment of hatching.
The aquarium now has about 40 cubs or young crocodiles that were born in the park less than a year ago. They are about four months old.
Tickets for Dubai Crocodile Park can be purchased at the park entrance. The park is open from 10:00 to 22:00 daily. Ticket price: AED 95 for adults and AED 75 for children from 3 to 12 years old.
New museum about the history of the UAE
At the Jumeirah Mosque in Dubai, the Once Upon a Time Museum has become a new point of attraction, with collections of rare artifacts, iconic photographs, and household items related to the history of the UAE.
For example, a traditional stone mill, which was used to grind flour and grain, tools for building boats, fishing, falconry, etc. are exhibited here.
The Once Upon a Time Museum is open daily from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm, except Friday. Entrance to the museum is free.
