The United Arab Emirates (UAE) are a popular travel destination, offering tourists a fascinating blend of tradition and modernity. While the most famous cities Dubai and Abu Dhabi are renowned for their impressive skylines and luxurious shopping centers, the northern emirates of Ras Al Khaimah, Ajman, and Sharjah provide unique experiences that lie off the beaten path.

Ras Al Khaimah, the northernmost emirate, is especially attractive to nature lovers. It features spectacular landscapes with rugged mountains, deserts, and a scenic coastline. Visitors can enjoy activities such as hiking, climbing, and desert safaris. Ras Al Khaimah is also known for its historical sites, including the National Museum and the Dhayah Fort, a centuries-old fortress.

Ajman, the smallest of the seven emirates, offers a relaxed atmosphere and pristine beaches perfect for unwinding. Compared to the bustling metropolises of the UAE, Ajman provides a quieter environment where visitors can fully experience Arab hospitality and culture. Local cuisine and markets, like the Ajman Fish Market, offer an authentic glimpse into daily life in the region, making Ajman an appealing destination for those looking to explore the traditional side of the Emirates close to the vibrant cities.

Culture enthusiasts will find their haven in Sharjah. As the cultural heart of the UAE, Sharjah offers a fascinating mix of historical and modern attractions. Visitors can explore the Sharjah Museum of Islamic Civilization, which showcases an impressive collection of Islamic art and artifacts, or stroll through the charming souks and the Al Arsa Souk for an authentic shopping experience. The picturesque Corniche of Sharjah invites relaxing walks with views of the clear sky and water, while beautiful mosques, including the impressive Al Noor Mosque, reflect the region's cultural depth and architectural elegance.

Die Vereinigten Arabischen Emiraten im Allgemeinen

Die Entstehung der VAE

Die Vereinigten Arabischen Emirate (VAE) wurden 1971 gegründet, als sich sieben Emirate entlang der Golfküste zusammenschlossen, von denen Abu Dhabi und Dubai bis heute die bekanntesten sind. Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, der Herrscher von Abu Dhabi, spielte eine Schlüsselrolle bei der Gründung und Förderung der Einheit. Seit ihrer Gründung haben die VAE ein rasantes Wachstum in den Bereichen Wirtschaft und Infrastruktur erlebt und sind zu einem globalen Drehkreuz geworden. Die Entstehung der VAE markiert somit den Beginn einer Erfolgsgeschichte im Nahen Osten.

These were boys' primary schools, with one located in Muscat, in Mutrah and in Salalah . In the entire country, only 909 students were taught by around 30 teachers.
