This morning Savannah and I took my mom to the Sheikh Mohammed Centre For Cultural Understanding. Chris and I went to the center when we were on our first visit to Dubai. To be honest, it was the thing on our itinerary that we were the least looking forward to and by the time we left it was our favorite thing that we had done during our brief stay.
The center is run by a local Emirati business man. He has returned to Dubai and opened the center in order to increase awareness and understanding between the cultures that live in Dubai.
Operating under the motto "open doors, open minds", the center strives to remove barriers between people of different nationalities and raise awareness of local culture, customs, and religion in the United Arab Emirates.
Over a traditional Emirati breakfast he gives you information and you are free to ask any questions you have. It is a really informative and interesting way to learn, while enjoying delicious food!
