Nothing particularly interesting. Found this area on the way to the coffee museum. Too hot to walk around the whole area...

Historic Place. looks very small from outside. Beautifully constructed from inside. Must visit. Entry fee is also very less. AED 3 per person.
L

Lukas Pedersen

Nice place for a walk, however not many people were there, and it all seemed a bit like a ghost town. Maybe it was the time of year of time of the day that kept people away. We visited the Coffee Museum and the XVA Gallery/Café, both very nice places.

For all whod like to see a bit of the traditional Dubai, come to Al Fahidi (former Bastakia) and walk through the old neighbourhood. Enjoy traditional food, art exhibitions and other offers in this nice and (compareably calm) area...

My favorite historical place in dubai. Walk through the alleys, enjoy a coffee in one of the amazing cafes in the courtyards of the old buildings, and appreciate the first type of building built in dubai in the 60s.

Enjoy the view of old dubai civilization where you can find alot of museum and cafe. When we arrive, The Sikka Festival is just openned so there are lot of perfomance and show.. Stroll to the alley to experience the old dubai environment
J

James Thornton

This place shows you what Dubai was meant to be like but unfortunately it fails to accurately represent the real houses from the era. A new development of 56 of these "historical" buildings are being built just next door , its something to do but dont believe for one minute its in any way authentic or historically accurate.
M

Mohamed Alhashmi

Good to see if you are in Dubai, but it seems this place is created only for tourists. No authentic life there made us feel its artificial.

Onil Marte Navarroza

A small area in Bur Dubai. Though the buildings are not original, it depicts the structure and interior of the homes and communities before the modernisation peruod. There are boutique hotels and lovely restaurants too. The best thing about this place is its always quite, just like having your own secret place.

its famous place in dubai,sheikh mohammed also grow up from here,was the heart of Dubai,arabic name is bastakiyah,this name come from farsi work bastak,bastak is small town in Iran Fars province. At the beginning times of Dubai,bastak people come here for living,then they stay here. So even now they are very famous businessman in Dubai,they already become UAE natoonalities now. Walking around here you can feel the different life and talk with the history.

這是非常有阿拉伯風情的觀光區, 也有悠久的歷史價值, 裡面的建築有阿拉伯地區富裕人家特有的風塔結構, 因此在室內庭院裡可以享受到建築結構自然收集來的涼風. 本區內有國營的錢幣博物館, 私人經營的藝廊、小店、咖啡廳, 大多免費。區內的Sheikh Mohammed Centre for Cultural Understanding經常有阿拉伯文化表演, 或露天展示傳統阿拉伯文化展示 (如客廳、織品), 是個很不錯的觀光景點.

البستكية شرقي المدينة في بر دبي, دبي حي من أقدم أحياء دبي التي رمّمت في نهايات القرن التاسع عشر، وتشكل هذه الفترة مرحلة مفصلية ف دبي، إذ بدأت معها حركة تكوين وازدهار إمارة دبي الحديثة. وفي قترة تأسيس الإمارة وتكوّنها سكنها حاكم وأمير دبي، من آل مكتوم، ورأى الفرصة باجتذاب البستكيين؛ وهم تجّار من أصول عربيّة سكنوا بلاد فارس في الماضي، وكان هدفه تطوير التجارة في الإمارة وتعزيز مكانة دبي كميناء تجاري عالمي. واندمج البستيك مع المجتمع الإمارتي وبنوا هذا الحي وفق طابع البناء الذي كان متبّعا في بداية القرن العشرين قبل توصيل الكهرباء إلى البيوت والمكيّفات وقبل الناء الإسمنتي. يتفرد الحي بعمرانه الخاص، وأبراج الريح التي تعتلي زوايا المباني، وهذا من التراث العمراني في دبي لتكييف البيوت. يمكنكم الوصول إلى الحي من عدة طرق تؤدي إليه من مختلف الاتجاهات، لكن إن أدتم تتبّع تراث المدينة، اسلكوا طريق عبارات خور دبي، فهذا سيضيف لرحلتكم متعة خاصة، عوضًا عن العبارات الحديثة والمتوفرة بشكل كبير آخذ بالازدياد. وإن أردتم أن تكون زيارتكم إليها متكاملة زوروا متحف دبي وأسواق دبي الرائعة ونخص بالذكر سوق الذهب وسوق التوابل. ما بالنسبة للمعلومات عن محطة الفاهيدي، محطة مترو دبي القريبة من الحي، فيمكنكم أن تجدوها هنا. وإذا ما قررتم التنقل بسيارات الأجرة فهنا تجدون موقع تاكسيات دبي. هل أعجبتكم البستكية؟ ابحثوا عن فنادق بالقرب من حي البستكية في دبي!

À visiter impérativement si vous êtes de passage à Dubai. Moins dun euro lentrée. Permet de comprendre lhistoire de cette ville, et de supprimer ces images de tours et de luxe que les européens ont dans leur tête. Rappelons que Dubai était un village de pêcheur de perles.
