Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates
The name Abu Dhabi means ‘Land of the Gazelle’ in Arabic. The story goes that the emirate was founded when a young antelope led a wandering tribe to fresh water on an island with no more than 300 Barasti (palm frond) huts, a few coral buildings and the Ruler’s fort. That modest island settlement has since been transformed into the modern, cosmopolitan, high-rise UAE capital city.
The gorgeous archipelago offers a mix of ancient history, rich culture and heritage, stunning nature, beautiful beaches, surprising wildlife, family-friendly adventure, world-class shopping, renowned golf courses and a welcoming atmosphere. Learn more about Abu Dhabi here.
