The restored village and watchtower of Al Miqsar at the head of the Wadi Shie.

Najd Al Miqsar is an abandoned settlement West of Khor FakkaninSharjah, United Arab Emirates (UAE), now a heritage village and popular tourist spot.

A traditional village at the head of the Wadi Shie, which is dammed by the Al Rafisah Dam, Najd Al Miqsar was restored as a heritage village following the construction of the Sharjah-Khor Fakkan highway and the dam and associated rest area[1] that were developed as part of the Dhs5.5 billion highway project.[2] The fort at Najd Al Miqsar formed part of a connected series of fortifications protecting Khor Fakkan, which included the Al Rabi Tower and the Al Adwani Tower.[3]
