Al Madam Buried Village

Al Madam Buried Village (Arabic: القرية المدفونة) or Sharjah Ghost Village is an abandoned village in Emirate of Sharjah United Arab Emirates, located in the Al Madam Municipality (Sharjah) of Al Madam.

Sand dunes rise above the deserted houses of this abandoned town,[4] and cracked walls and wallpaper provide an eerie backdrop to the lives of the residents left behind.

[5][6][7] Al Madam village was built in the 1970s and was developed as part of the government's modernization program, specifically targeting neighbouring tribes as a public housing project.

With the intention of recreating the landscape during the unification of the seven emirates, the village includes 12 houses and a mosque.
