Dubai’s local government agencies played a vital role in it. It has made Dubai an architectural heritage that lots of visitors around the world visit every day.
The ancient heritage buildings of Dubai are also being preserved. Buildings which were harmed during the course of time are being restored.
The idea behind this restoration is to ensure that coming generations know and understand their rich heritage and history. Likewise, visitors will also get to know that there is another side of Dubai which also exists apart from big buildings and shopping malls which abound.
