ادخل بيت تاجر لؤلؤ من أربعينيات القرن التاسع عشر.

بيت تراثي مرمّم بجمال كان ملكاً لتاجر لؤلؤ ثري. استكشف غرفه الكثيرة وغرفة الصيف على السطح والمعروضات عن ماضي الشارقة في الغوص على اللؤلؤ.

بيت النابودة من أبرز البيوت التقليدية في الشارقة، مبني حول فناء مظلل في قلب الشارقة. تجوّل بين غرف العائلة والمجلس وغرفة الصيف على السطح، وتعرّف على تجارة اللؤلؤ والحياة اليومية قبل النفط. هادئ وجميل للتصوير ونادراً ما يكون مزدحماً.
