Sharjah 24: The Ramadan series “Sharjah’s Beautiful Ramadan" has turned its focus to one of Al Dhaid’s newest landmarks: Souq Al Sharia. The market has quickly become a gathering point during the holy month, welcoming residents and visitors from across the UAE who come to soak up the gentle warmth that defines Ramadan evenings in the city.

Built in a heritage style, the market draws on natural materials and desert-inspired wooden detailing, giving the space a character that feels both deliberate and unforced. It doesn’t feel like a typical shopping development. People come to browse, certainly, but they also come to sit for a while, meet friends and enjoy the evening air.

The market occupies a prominent spot in the city and includes 34 shops, ranging from cafés and restaurants to small retail outlets. Together, they give the area a steady flow of activity throughout the night. The traditional design doesn’t feel staged; it simply belongs here, part of the town’s everyday rhythm.
