HERITAGE OF THE NATION ONLINE GCC - UAE PAVILION

Khaleejia said: April was full of the festivals, exhibitions, concerts, fairs, etc all over the UAE and we hardly managed to attend 10% of them. Choosing the most significant events to feature them later on Khaleejia's life pages.
Here is one of those places we have successfully visited.
Sharjah had its annual Heritage Village Festival that collected all GCC countries in one place. Every country presented their customs & traditions through different cultural items and performances such as national outfits, dances, food etc.
Despite that all mainly were strolling around the area, me and my friends gathered in this pavilion where was settled a nice traditional majlis perfectly suited to sit by big groups of people and discuss social and other problems without bothering others. Around the sitting area there were nicely decorated rooms with demonstration of multiple fields of traditional life in the region. I was happy to see families were vising this pavilion and reading all this beautifully made posters for their kids that may sounded for the little ones as another life they may not have anymore. Somehow i got a chance to back to this place before we left the village and took pictures of the every room and corner which were already empty but still  meaningful.

Emirati youth support preserving culture. Our mission is featured by UAE newspaper Al Bayan

Khaleejia said: It was an honor for me and my friends to visit Park of sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed for Family Gatherings in Dubai. Being received by head of the Heritage Department  and Studies of the Environment Jumaa bin Thalith we learnt in details how was the life in the previous times when there was no even electricity. The life in the desert and at the sea was really hard yet beautiful and amazing. Our visit was featured by Al Bayan (Newspaper, UAE )  on 15/03/2013
