Emirati meals, mosque visits and conversation in a wind-tower house

About

Open doors, open minds: eat, walk and ask, with Emiratis in the room, in a house that still catches the wind.

The Sheikh Mohammed Centre for Cultural Understanding occupies a restored wind-tower house at House 26, Al Musallah Street, in Al Fahidi Historical Neighbourhood. Founded in 1998, it brings residents, expatriates and visitors together with Emirati hosts over meals, mosque visits, heritage walks and conversation. Its motto is "Open Doors. Open Minds." Hosts answer questions about faith and custom, including the awkward ones.
