Dubai's greatest stamp collection
Looking forward to all the interesting cultural and historical experiences you'll have in Dubai? Here's one to add to the list. A trip to the Philately House, located in
Al Fahidi Historical Neighbourhood, can help paint a picture of postal advances in Dubai — as well as the entire UAE.
Housed in a traditional building that's crafted from coral and stone, visitors can explore a permanent exhibition that showcases a rich collection of stamps, postmarks and more, designed to depict the development of postal activities from before the
UAE's federation until present day.
If you're a seasoned stamp collector, you'll be pleased to know that the Emirates Philatelic Association also sells prized stamps from this location.
This under-the-radar historical site makes for a surprisingly compelling stop.
