Photo Friday: Fountain at Al Qasba

Fountain and Ferris Wheel at Al Qasba

This picture was taken by me on my  first visit to Al Qasba, Sharjah last year. The fountain is just one part of an area that is described as the cultural hub of Sharjah.

There are countless resturants and cafes along with an amusement park area for kids and boat rides for anyone who’d like a trip around the canal.. Al Qasba also boasts of Sharjah’s tallest ferris wheel (which isn’t all that tall) and is called the Eye of the Emirates.

The place is lively, colorful and always bustling. It’s one of my favourite place to hang out in the evening.

Interesting trivia: Al Qasba is built around a canal.
