This is also known as Al Bastakiya, a historic district in Dubai, United Arab Emirates (UAE).

Al Fahidi Historical Neighbourhood was capable of 60 housing units, most of which were separated by narrow, winding lanes. The town of Al Bastakiya was primarily built by immigrants from the city of Bastak, Persia who left their native homeland due to religious persecution.

It is such an honor and privilege that we got to experience until now the old way of life. Rich values that can be seen in the design of the buildings and the way they are distributed. The community cares for privacy that can be felt in the front windows, their narrowness and highness. The buildings of the district are currently used in cultural and artistic activities (both public and private).
