Al Karama, Mixed residential district on Dubai Creek, United Arab Emirates

The neighborhood spans two kilometers from Umm Hurair 1 to Zabeel Park, featuring numerous low-rise buildings along planned grid streets.

During the 1960s, Al Karama provided settlement for Omani citizens relocated from Zanzibar under Sheikh Rashid bin Saeed Al Maktoum's leadership.

The district contains multiple religious structures, international restaurants, and shopping centers that reflect its population of South Asian, Filipino, and Middle Eastern residents.

Two metro stations, ADCB and BurJuman, connect the area to Dubai's public transportation network, alongside numerous bus routes serving the community.

The neighborhood houses Dubai Central Laboratory and maintains one of the city's main postal facilities within its boundaries.
