Let there be rain! All about Zawaya Walk Sharjah
Sharjah might not be as widely talked about as neighbouring Dubai, but for those who love culture, art and a slower pace of life, plenty in the emirate is worth a shout-out. Home to several museums, iconic landmarks and ever-changing exhibitions, the city has established itself as a cultural hub of the UAE.
But its newest tourist spot offers something different and is all everyone could discuss (for all the right reasons). Sharjah is now home to a unique rain installation where visitors can enjoy downpours on demand! So, grab your gamp and join us as we explore the much-hyped rain street at Zawaya Walk and everything else you can enjoy here.
