City plan of Sharjah, the capital of the emirate of Sharjah, published just a few years after independence and the formation of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) in 1971. Hotels, petrol stations, and important civic buildings are marked. Many areas of the city which are now densely inhabited with high-rise buildings are shown on the map as undeveloped, a testament to the city's rapid expansion.
