Sharjah is gearing up for a significant presence at the 43rd edition of the World Travel
Market (WTM) in London from 6-8 November. Sharjah will be represented by a coalition
of 18 government and private entities in collaboration with the Sharjah Commerce and
Tourism Development Authority (SCTDA), with a focus on showcasing the emirate's
accomplishments in aligning tourism sector growth with the preservation of
environmental, heritage, and cultural values — an essential component of its sustainable
tourism diversification strategy.

Throughout its participation, the emirate will shine a spotlight on a diverse array of
exceptional experiences and destinations, encompassing environmental, desert,
heritage, cultural, recreational, adventure, and sports tourism. Sharjah is distinguished by
its unique environmental diversity, spanning from the desert to the islands, including
landmarks such as the Khorfakkan Amphitheatre, Mleiha Archaeological and Ecotourism
Project, Buhais Geology Park, Sharjah Safari, and natural reserves like the Wasit Wetland
Centre and Al Qurm Nature Reserve.

The emirate has been steadfast in its growth. In 2022, Sharjah's hotels welcomed over
1.4 million guests, and this year has seen a substantial increase in guest numbers.
