LOCATED 130 KILOMETERS FROM DUBAI IS THE SECOND OF THE GREAT CITIES OF ARAB EMIRATES. THIS CITY HAS A HISTORY OF UNUSUAL DEVELOPMENT IN THE WORLD, COMPARABLE ONLY NOW WITH THE ASIAN GIANTS, CHINA AND INDIA.

40 years ago, it was a small fishing village. Today luxury hotels are everywhere due to the strong demand for tourism and business that has been in recent years. Built on a T-shaped island, the city offers a seven kilometers long.

Al-Hosn Palace, known as the Old Fort, is one of the few buildings in the city that has more than 30 years. This fort was built by the first king of the dynasty of Al-Nahyan before being replaced by the present building in the late nineteenth century. Today, restored and modernized, has a documentation center.

Nearby is the cultural foundation that contains a library and documentation center and search, as well as frequent exhibits on local history, Islamic art and ancient manuscripts. There is also a craft market woman within 5 kilometers south of Abu Dhabi, which exhibits and sells particularly traditional fabrics.

The workshop in which dows, famous wooden boats in the Persian Gulf and the fish market are made is also curious to see because of its ancient tradition.

Within the emirate of Abu Dhabi is Al Ain, a city that houses an interesting palace that bears his name and which was the residence of Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan from 1927 until the late 70s. In the palace you can see the collection of family pictures and the way via the royal family.
