Al Fahidi Historical District, commonly referred to as Al Bastakiya, holds the memories of an era that pre-dates the federation of the Emirates.
In the 1980s half of the Al Fahidi Historical Neighbourhood village was destroyed to make way for the development of a new office complex. The remaining houses were mostly used as warehouses or accommodation for foreign laborers. In 1989, the Dubai Municipality directed that the remaining parts of Al Fahidi Historical Neighbourhood were to be demolished. Rayner Otter, a British architect, came to the area and made extensive renovation in the house where he was staying. Rayner started a campaign to preserve the area and wrote a letter to Prince Charles, who was scheduled to visit Dubai that year. On his arrival, Prince Charles asked to visit Al Fahidi Historical Neighborhood and explored the whole area with Rayner Otter. During his visit the Prince suggested that Al Fahidi Historical Neighbourhood should be preserved and the demolition was canceled.

The Bastakiya Quarter is the historic part of Dubai where Iranians from the Bastak region of Iran emigrated to in the late 19th and early 20th century.
The Bastakiya quarter is an area of Dubai on the Bur Dubai side of the Dubai Creek that dates from the 1890s, where residents originally earned money from pearl diving. In the 1990s, most residents in Bastakiya had their homes bought by the Dubai Goverment, and starting in the late 1990s the Historic Buildings Section of the Dubai Municipality began redeveloping the area with old historic buildings renovated (or rebuilt), along with a number of art galleries and cafes being opened up.
Al Fahidi Historical District – Bastakiya
Welcome to my channel!
For all those of you out there who feel that Dubai is only a city of bricks and blocks without any culture and heritage, well, think again. I spent an entire day soaking up Arabic culture, walking along the mazes of history and creating memories that i will cherish for a long time.
I’m a fan of historic places. I love how Dubai preserved their history and make it more beautiful. ❤
