Majlis Ghorfat Um-al-Sheef is a two storey structure built in 1955 and was attended in the evenings by Sheikh Rashid bin Saeed al-Maktoum, the then Vice-President and Prime Minister of United Arab Emirates and Emir of Dubai. The actual majlis or meeting room, upstairs is decorated with cushions, rugs, a coffee pot, and pottery, thus resembling the interior in the 50s.
