Al Dhaid is an inland oasis city in the Emirate of Sharjah, located in the central part of the UAE, near the Omani border, about 60 kilometers from Sharjah city. Known as the "Garden of the Emirates" for its fertile agricultural land and rich oasis landscapes, the city is one of the UAE's major suppliers of agricultural products, mainly tropical fruits such as mangoes, lemons and pomegranates, as well as vegetables and dates. With its traditional Emirati culture, ancient fort ruins and mosques, surrounded by palm-dotted oases and a milder climate than the coastal towns, Zidfar is an ideal destination to experience the rural life and traditions of the region.
