Information about the main attractions to see in Abu Dhabi
The wealthy capital city of the UAE is known as the Garden City of the Gulf on account of the many parks to be found off its tree lined avenues. This city, built mainly in the last 50 years has become an important symbol of the wealth of the nation, and boasts many great buildings in celebration of the culture and history of the United Arab Emirates.
Whether your interests lie in experiencing the unique Islamic culture and art on display in the many museums and galleries, or taking the opportunities offered by the lack of purchase taxes to indulge in some retail therapy and pick up a few bargains at the glitzy shopping malls and market places around Abu Dhabi. In this modern city, there are plenty of impressive monuments to see, and it is possible to spend days walking around looking at statues and fountains should you want to. A number of world-class golf courses await you on the outskirts of the city, and there is always the chance to meek a few people and relax with a stroll along the beautiful Sea Corniche.
