Abu Dhabi, the capital of the UAE, is about 90 minutes by road from Dubai, which makes it an easy day trip. The city is known for its grand architecture, museums and beautiful corniche.

The first stop on most tours is the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, one of the largest mosques in the world and a masterpiece of white marble. Entry is free, and visitors are welcome outside prayer times, but modest clothing is required, with shoulders, arms and legs covered. Women are asked to cover their hair.

“Abu Dhabi shows you the calm, cultural side of the UAE.”
