Lonely Planet review for Courtyard
This cultural complex wraps around the eponymous courtyard flanked by an eccentric hodgepodge of buildings that makes it look like a miniature movie studio backlot: here an Arab fort, there a Moorish facade or an Egyptian tomb. It’s the brainchild of Iranian expat artist Dariush Zandi, who also runs the bi-level gallery Total Arts at The Courtyard, specialising in Middle Eastern art. Other spaces are occupied by a cafe, artist studios and various creative businesses.
