Abu Dhabi has plenty to offer to everyone! Here are a few of the fun things you can consider doing when you’re here.

The largest mosque

Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque is a must to visit when you’re in the Abu Dhabi. Known as the largest mosque in the whole of UAE, this mosque is right of a dream.

The national bird

Learn about falconry, something that has been a part of the Arabian history for a very long time, almost 2000 years. The Peregine falcon is a great symbol of the Bedouin culture in the UAE. Make some extra time to visit the mainland from Anantara Sir Bani Yas Island Al Yamm Villa Resort or any of the other Abu Dhabi beach resorts you’re staying at to gain knowledge.

The palace

The Emirates Palace is known as the official guest palace of the city’s government, and is a rather prominent part of the city. This structure boasts 394 rooms and drips with gold. You can also enjoy a 24-karat-gold-flaked cappuccino if you’re in the mood!
