The square is one of the important tourist sites, being surrounded by a number of landmarks, including Khor Kalba Fort in the north, the new castle neighborhood mosque in the south, and the developed Kalba Corniche extension in the east. The square also features several important construction elements, such as fishermen heritage mosque “Saif Bin Ghanim Mosque” and the Water Fountain.
His Highness the Ruler of Sharjah pressed on the button to turn on the fountain, which is considered one of the distinctive tourist elements and indicates the city's welcome of its visitors.
Recently restored, the fishermen heritage mosque is one of the oldest mosques, built of coral marine stone and plaster with its roofing covered with palm fronds, and adorned with colourful lightings that add more aesthetic scene to the mosque and its surrounding.
The inauguration was attended by Sheikh Saeed bin Saqr Al Qasimi, Deputy Chief of Sharjah Ruler's Office in Khorfakkan; Sheikh Haitham bin Saqr Al Qasimi, Deputy Head of the Ruler's Office in Kalba, and a number of senior officials and dignitaries.
