Sharjah Desert Park
Best time to visit
Visit early in the morning (from 9:00) when the animals are most active and the temperatures are pleasant. Winter (November to March) offers the best conditions for exploring outdoor spaces.
Budget tips
The adult ticket costs about 15 AED (approximately 4 USD), and children up to 12 years old enter for free. Do not skip the combined ticket that includes the natural history museum as well - same price, much more content.

About
Quick facts: On almost 60 hectares of desert landscape sits a complex that combines a natural history museum, a botanical garden, and a wildlife center. More than 100 species of desert fauna live here, including Arabian oryx antelopes that were once completely extinct in the wild.
Highlights: Night tours with special lighting reveal desert animals that are otherwise completely invisible during the day, from scorpions that fluoresce under UV light to nocturnal desert rodents. A particularly moving moment is when, in the silence of the night, you hear the growl of the Arabian lynx, one of the most endangered cats in the world.
