Ras Al Khor

Emirate of Dubai, United Arab Emirates

Ras Al Khor (Raʾs al-Khūr, lit. 'Head of the Creek') or Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary is a wetland reserve in Dubai, renowned for attracting large numbers of migratory birds. It is also home to a large population of crustaceans, small mammals, and fish. It was the end of Dubai Creek before the construction of Dubai Canal, hence the Arabic name.
