Fantastic 5.0
Qasr Al Hosn is a museum dedicated to the birth place of the UAE ruling family. It is easily reachable from any part of the city through taxis or you can walk if living in nearby hotels. The tickest can be purchased from the House of Artisans office beside the attraction. Its small but well maintained attraction showcasing the early lives of the family and different day to day tools used by them. Ideal time to visit is between 30mins to an hour. Staff present there guide the tourists about the different sections. Being a small museum there is no cafe or food joint as such, so keep that in mind. Overall a definite visit for tourists.
