Sharjah Trip: Al-Naboodah House

Bait Al Naboodah is another building that located between the waterfront and Al Boorj Avenue by Souk Al Arsa that we have to visit today.

Bait Al Naboodah is built in the traditional Gulf shape and in an Arabic Islamic Arhitecture and a sheer Sharjah Spirit. It is a traditional family home comprised of 16 rooms that have been converted into a museum. Each room has a different theme such as traditional clothing, an old kitchen and livingrooms, jewelry, costumes and artifacts.

Hi Agnes, Wow! You sure look lovely in this new profile pic. You are a very attractive lady, *wink*.
I love your this pictures of the building. Love the courtyard, bedroom, kitchen and that spiral staircase. But wonder why they have guns in the rooms?
Agne s, I checked out your email and noticed your address name is not joined? Is there an underscore below or inbetween? I would love to have diplomatic relations with you...will surprise you, ha ha. If you like can confirm your address name....what you can do if don't mind, just pop into my post and say, "name joined, no underscore". Will get in touch with you then, thanks, UL.
