**Review of Qasr Al Watan (Presidential Palace), Abu Dhabi**  ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐  **A Majestic Masterpiece!**  My visit to **Qasr Al Watan** was nothing short of extraordinary. This isn&rsquo;t just a palace&mdash;it&rsquo;s a breathtaking symbol of heritage, power, and artistry.  **What Stole My Heart:**  🏰 **Grandeur &amp; Opulence** &ndash; The sheer scale and intricate details of the architecture left me in awe. Every corner, from the Great Hall to the Library, radiates elegance and cultural significance.  🌟 **Evening Light Show** &ndash; The facade came alive with a **stunning light and sound spectacle**&mdash;a perfect blend of tradition and modern technology. Absolute magic!  👑 **Serene Atmosphere** &ndash; Unlike crowded tourist spots, the palace felt peaceful, allowing us to soak in its beauty without distractions.  **Final Thoughts:**  A **must-visit** for anyone in Abu Dhabi. Whether you&rsquo;re fascinated by history, architecture, or simply want to witness Emirati heritage at its finest, Qasr Al Watan delivers.

Ferrari theme park is very suitable for parent-child travel, especially it has the fastest roller coaster in the world, it is worth experiencing, and Ferrari cars can be seen everywhere in the park, how to take pictures, all kinds of entertainment activities, the key is that there are few people, very comfortable.

SeaWorld® Yas Island

Buying tickets directly at the entrance of the park is very fast, much cheaper than the on-site ticket of the park. At the same time, within 270 days of entering the second park, you can flexibly arrange the time of the next park to facilitate the next entrance.

The roller coaster is super exciting, the feet are really soft, too small friends are not suitable for playing too much, Warner is more suitable for children to play, all indoors, summer is also very comfortable, compared to the domestic amusement park queue time is not long, this is very good
