Adjacent to Al Seef lies the Al Fahidi Historical Neighbourhood, also known as Al Bastakiya. Dating back to the late 19th century, this district showcases Dubai's traditional lifestyle with its narrow alleys, wind-tower houses, and buildings constructed from stone, gypsum, and palm wood. The area is home to several cultural institutions, including the Dubai Museum housed in the 1787 Al Fahidi Fort, art galleries, and the Sheikh Mohammed Centre for Cultural Understanding, which offers insights into Emirati traditions
