Al Jazirat Al Hamra, the Ghost Town of Ras Al Khaimah, abandoned when oil wealth gave rise to the UAE’s urbanisation. In the still Ghost Town the bronze, rusty coloured coating over Al Jazirat Al Hamra is a remaining symbol of the once flourishing pearl fishing village, whose name in Arabic translates into ‘Red Island’ for the kind of sand upon which it was built. Eerie remnants of houses, schools, a mosque and marketplaces are now nothing more than derelict empty shells – a window into traditions and trades, abandoned when oil wealth gave rise to rapid urbanisation in the creation of the UAE.
