Imagine cruising down a scenic highway, the rhythm of the road harmonising with the hum of your engine and suddenly, sweet melodies fill the air. Welcome to Fujairah's musical road, a first-of-its-kind marvel in the UAE that transforms an ordinary drive into a symphonic experience. Located along a 750-metre stretch of Sheikh Khalifa Street, this musical road is redefining everyday commuting with its classical concerts on wheels. As vehicles traverse specially designed grooves embedded in the road surface, the tyres generate vibrations that bring to life the renowned melodies of Beethoven's Ninth Symphony - creating a unique auditory experience for drivers and passengers alike.
