consists of the capital - the city of Umm al-Quwain and the oasis of
Falah ibn Mualla on Wadi Midfaq flowing down from the Hajar
Mountains.

It borders the emirates of Sharjah and Ras al-Khaimah.

Among immigrants, it is popular mainly for two reasons.

The first is a duty-free liquor store, the second is the largest (so far)

is slowly becoming an alternative for those looking for cheap
apartments in the UAE
