Sharjah's Architectural Splendour

Más información sobre el libro

One of the defining features of contemporary Sharjah is that this emirate respects its culture and heritage very seriously indeed. Perhaps the most obvious manifestation of this deep-seated commitment can be seen in the architecture of the city. From small aesthetic details to grand public compounds, from mosques to souks, the splendour of Sharjah's constructions astounds. Perpetually true to its Islamic history, Sharjah has preserved its cultural heritage and built a new city around those core values. The result is a stunning example of careful, conscious and exquisite planning put into spectacular practice.
