For AED 15 per ticket you get to enter five halls detailing life on earth since the beginning of time. There are displays of fossils, meteorites, taxidermic animals and desert ecosystems, along with a Islamic botanical garden. Wild Life center for the animals/birds that lived in the region which is so so beautifully maintained. Great fun for family and kids especially the Children’s Farm where your little ones will enjoy feeding some pets like goats, sheep, horses, donkeys and hens.

The only interactive museum in the United Arab Emirates, this exciting science museum lets visitors test their flexibility, create cartoons, study the stars and much more.

Another Sharjah gem and affordable day out. Some displays are blocked off due to Covid rules however what is open is adequate for small children. Nice interactive and interesting displays. Perfect for smaller children ages 5-10 however teenagers might be bored easily. I have rated this a 5/5 as it’s affordable, clean and interesting and it will be much better as well once all the displays are open.

They have a huge variety of reptiles and rodents especially ..only 15 aed for adults... kids enter free.. the have a kids farm, islamic botanical garden and desert wildlife zoo.. all entry at this same price.. they are closed during national holidays is what I've heard. They have a cafeteria inside where you can get to buy tea and snacks and lunch as well. Kids can get to feed the farm animals as well for free.

I visited this place with my family. Ticket price is compared to other Emirates same parks. The number of visitors were very less. There are somany fishes and the place is very calm and clean. I think the parks, museums and other attractions in Sharjah is underrated.
