Al Ain, the UAE's oasis city, is a natural wonder of the world, where palm trees outnumber houses and ancient waterways nourish the desert land. The city’s history is a source of pride, so much so that the region is a protected
UNESCO World Heritage Site. The landscape is as diverse as its culture, from the busy city streets to the desolate desert dunes. In the city, you’ll come upon ancient forts representing time-honoured traditions with important stories of the nation's origin to tell.
A visit to Al Ain can be anything from a tranquil escape to an adrenaline-fueled adventure. The lush green oases are a haven for calming walks and natural history lessons. Meanwhile, out in the deserts and mountains, engines roar as they climb the dunes and hearts beat a little faster on hikes up high peaks. Immerse yourself in the vibrant and bustling souks. Watch traditional artisans craft materials into fine souvenirs, breathe in the unforgettable smell of Arabian spices and perfumes and taste delicious Emirati cuisine.
