Nazwā (Arabic: نَزْوَى) is a village in the Emirate of Sharjah, the U.A.E., located just off the Dubai-Hatta highway between Lahbab and Madam, and near the Emirate of Dubai.
A small village, Nazwa is known for Qarn Nazwā (Arabic: قَرْن نَزْوَى), a limestone outcrop and the surrounding desert area known for bird watching.[1]
Al Ghaf Conservation Reserve, located on the Dubai side of Nazwa, was one of six such reserves announced by the government of Dubai in May 2014.[2] The Ghaf (Prosopis cineraria) is the national tree of the UAE.[3]
