Film offers tour of Arabian Peninsula
The Coos Bay Public Library’s “Armchair Film Adventure” series will resume on Tuesday at 2 p.m. in the Myrtlewood Meeting Room at the library, 525 Anderson Ave. This adventure focuses on the Arabian Peninsula.
Dubai is a holiday paradise with a romantic desert and a long history that unites with the present. Fifteen kilometers from Dubai is the tiny Emirate of Sharjah where life continues according to age-old Arabian tradition. Tourism was once popular on this former pirate coast but when the Saudi king subsequently prohibited the consumption of alcohol tourists stayed away.
Abu Dhabi is the largest of the seven Emirates and means Father of the Gazelle, a name derived from an ancient legend. In the 1960s Abu Dhabi had a population of 5,000 that has now grown to almost a million.
