Dubai Museum
Dubai Museum is the main museum in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. Built in 1787, it is located in the Al Fahidi Fort and is the oldest existing building in Dubai. The museum was opened by the ruler of Dubai in 1971, with the aim of presenting the traditional way of life in the Emirate of Dubai. It includes local antiquities as well as artifacts from African and Asian countries that traded with Dubai. It also includes several dioramas showing life in the emirate before the advent of oil. In addition are artifacts from recent discoveries, dating as far back as 3000 B.C. Beach Visit

Useful Information
Weather
November to April is the best time of year to be in Dubai. It's not nearly as hot as the steamy summer months that reach 50 degrees C, but also not too chilly. The average high for the month is around 26 degrees C while the low is around the 16 degree mark.
Religion
Islam is the official religion of the UAE and forms an extremely important part of its culture and daily life. The government of Dubai practices a policy of tolerance towards other religions, however, and the emirate is the only one to house churches and Hindu temples. It's important to remember local culture and beliefs when in Dubai; while visitors are not expected to cover up completely when it comes to clothing, some respect should be shown in terms of not dressing in too revealing a manner when not on the beach or at the pool.
Alcohol is served in the hotels (and at the rugby ground), but cannot be consumed in public outside of these venues. Only residents who hold an official alcohol license may purchase it in shops.
Also important to remember is that there is a zero tolerance policy when it comes to drunk driving, so if you have had even one drink, don't get behind the wheel of a car.
UAE culture
For older women, the home remains the sphere of activity, while younger women, benefiting from their access to modern education, are playing an ever-wider role in the society. An estimated 13% of the UAE's labour force is female, and women are increasingly represented in government posts.
Reflecting the mix of modern and traditional influences, clothing styles in the UAE are both Western and indigenous. Most Emirati men wear the dishdasha, a white, loose-fitting garment that is comfortable in hot weather. Most women wear the enveloping black abaya and a face mask called the burka, although this tradition is beginning to be abandoned by younger, educated women.
Courtesy and hospitality are among the most highly prized of virtues in the Arab world, and visitors will be charmed by the warmth and friendliness of the people in UAE.
Visa regulations
There are several types of visas for visitors to Dubai. Some visitors need to obtain a visa prior to travelling to the UAE, while others can obtain a visit visa, valid for 30 days, upon arrival.
