Sharjah Investment and Development Authority (Shurooq) has announced plans to develop a major leisure attraction in Dibba Al Hisn, one of the Emirate’s exclaves that is located close to Fujairah and Oman. The project will feature a water canal, restaurants and cafes, a movie theatre, children’s playgrounds and other amenities. Currently in the planning and design stage, the project will also feature Andalusian designs that are inspired by the Al Hamra Palace. Shurooq did not disclose the value of the new leisure project but said that it will help add on to the attractions in Diba Al Hisn. The agency also said that it will reveal more details at a later phase. Sharjah is aggressively developing new leisure and cultural attractions as it strives to meet its target of attracting 10 million tourists by 2021. Earlier this year, Shurooq announced the launch of Al Noor Island, a massive leisure island project that is located in Khalid Lagoon. Valued at Dhs 80m, the island will consist of a Butterfly House that will house 500 species of butterflies, a Literature Pavilion, a children’s playground and an egg-shaped OVO art sculpture.
