"Dubai: the Way it Used to Be One of the cheapest tickets in Dubai is to the museum. At AED 1 when I visited (about .30 cents USD), the museum is a fantastic display of the short history of Dubai . From a pearl diving town, the City has grown in the last 30-40 years into a multinational metropolis where imaginations run wild and dreams are seen to reality. This museum, full of life-sized wax mannequins, allows visitors to wander through a day in the life of many different people and nearly interact with society. This photo was taken of a ship builder. Blue tones, mirrors, and a bit of air conditioning from the hot outdoors, allow guests to feel like they are in the ocean scene; wandering around a shipyard, and watching the latest catch being brought in. If you are interested in any bit of culture and history of Dubai, this small museum will be an unexpected way to walk through time."
