Abudhabi airport amazing 🤩
I had a transit stop while flying to India and was impressed by the facilities in Abudhabi airport. This is my first time here in UAE and I am very impressed by how things are going here.
Lounge, custom, check in luggage and access to the city is very easy. The airline that I came with have a stopover program which allows you to stay in hotel for free including transportation to the hotel and food during your stay.

Grand masque Abu Dhabi
Beautiful architecture not far from Abu Dhabi airport. you can take a direct bus from the airport. It is ideal for a short stop over in Abu Dhabi. I would take you a couple of hours to discover the whole place. After this trip you can visit the central area of Abu Dhabi and enjoy all different kinds of food, shopping or just go to the beach and chill out. Highly recommend

Stunning Abu Dhabi
Abu Dhabi is such a refreshing visit when coming from
Dubai, it’s laid back, stunning palaces and mosques, as well as being a bit easier on the wallet.
You do need a car really for Abu Dhabi, as it’s absolutely massive.
Well worth a visit!

Amazing Layover!!!
My layover in Abu Dhabi was fantastic!
Despite it being late at night, the airport was still bustling with people in shops and restaurants. There were countless of amenities available that kept everyone company. From the couches in the public space to the amazing waiting areas within the gates, I could not have asked for a better layover experience! Loved every moment of it 🥳

Duty Free Abu Dhabi
One of the best stopover is in Abu Dhabi, they have a big Duty Free, and huge airport too. Be careful when you have a stopover here, make sure you have also enough time to move from one gate to another . There are few restaurants that were open even at night so you can have a small meal while waiting for the next flight . They also have a frienldly staff who also speaks English.

My first 5 star hotel experience!
I had never stayed in a real 5 star hotel before in my life. Last summer it was my first time: in Abu Dhabi I had a stopover and I stayed in the premium 5 star hotel Andaz Capital Gate. It was a mind-blowing experience. Unfortunately I normally won't be able to stay in such high standard hotels, but this was a memory never to forget!

The modernity of Abu Dhabi
My time in Abu Dhabi was a dazzling encounter with modernity, a cityscape where architectural marvels redefine the skyline. Securing tickets to iconic structures like the Etihad Towers and the sleek Emirates Palace set the stage for an urban exploration.
The futuristic design of the buildings was awe-inspiring. The Etihad Towers, with their glass facades and cutting-edge design, stood as symbols of innovation. The sweeping curves and grandeur of the Emirates Palace showcased a blend of opulence and contemporary aesthetics.
The sleekness of the Corniche, lined with modern high-rises, provided a stunning contrast against the azure waters. Each skyscraper seemed to compete for attention, boasting unique designs that pushed the boundaries of architectural imagination.

The Abu Dhabi Louvre
, which was suitable for taking pictures, went to Masdar City last time and found Abu Dhabis ambitions in the energy market. The Louvre should be regarded as a chieftains eagerness in the art field. With a large number of precious collections, the museum itself is very worthy of watching. Sitting under the huge multi-layered metal hollow dome, listening to the construction concept of Ta, watching the accelerated version of the engineering video, playing and flicking will never repeat. The light and shadow, this afternoon passed.

Abu Dhabi's niche attractions that are super-suitable for photography
Who can imagine that the rich UAE is also afraid of energy depletion, and opened the construction plan of the Environmental City more than ten years ago. Although Masdar, which has zero target emissions and self-sufficiency in energy, has only built 5% in ten years, and zero carbon has failed, this concept is the future development trend. The low-carbon life and the black technology with rich gold content are worth a Look.
However, relying on high technology, another town that is piled up in gold, how many years does it take to build energy that can be recovered?

Come to the largest castle in the UAE to see the history of soap tablets!
2019 The UAE Asian Cup poster on the four-circle film cylinder is actually in Ain, it also appeared in the emblem of the Ain Football Club.
This shows that the four-layer tact is full of weight. It is actually the famous Al Jahili Fort, located in the southern part of Al Ain, the largest castle in the UAE. In the outer circle of the long strip castle, there are several small round castles and a four-storey old castle with concentric structure. There are also two exhibition rooms. It can be said that it is not small. Its a good spot to learn about history in different exhibition halls and avoid the heat.
Its just a sight. Its not too close. Its hard to take a photo of it. I especially love the old castle. Its appearance is full of exotic exotic styles in the Middle East. Climb up and down and walk around it. In a circle you will find a lot of angles suitable for taking pictures.

A magical market that understands both local customs and happy photos [Ain Camel Market]
Ain is a city under Abu Dhabi in the UAE. It is Oman on the edge and is famous for its world heritage and oasis. Of course, in addition to these two things must be seen, there is also a place worth visiting - Camel Market, this is the only camel market that the UAE has retained, where you can feel the most local buying habits and locals and camels. relationship.
Although there is a stench of dizziness, but you can see different types of camels, from the "small players" who are engaged in the Camel movement of the UAE in the future, to the "cannon king" of a little green in the flowers. Camels of different colors and sizes are very curious to visitors like us. As soon as you get close, they will stop and eat the rhythm of eating, and at the same time look back at you, take pictures and take photos with them. I forgot the taste.
Not only that, but you can also see the locals driving trucks to buy sheep, picking camels, and bargaining loudly. It can be said that it is very Middle East

Abu Dhabi's red sand sea, most people choose to travel in the evening, you can see the beautiful sunset and starry sky, this vast UAE country, eroded by the sea breeze from the Arabian Sea, day after day, fighting the stars, this barren desert However, it has become a human miracle, but it has become a world of the most affluent countries in the world.

Abu Dhabi is low-key and gives the location of the light of the UAE to Dubai. It is the capital of the UAE and the place where the king is resident. When I really entered this country, I discovered what is called low-key luxury. Its really like the legend, the super sports car roaring with the motor sounds on the road, the modern city is complete, the greening is more than Dubai, the buildings opposite the Emirates Palace Hotel, their aesthetic form also makes me Amazed.

I heard about Etihad's five-star aviation, so I chose Etihad Airways when I booked a European ticket, that is, I had to go back and forth in Abu Dhabi (the base of Etihad), just in time for the UAE country at the end of 2016. Officially exempted from signing in China, thinking that although the transfer time is a little longer, but you dont have to pay for another visa to get out of the wave and make a card temptation is still very big.
About Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque.
The entire mosque was built with white marble, unified white tones, shining in the sun.
Although this is a mosque that can be opened to non-Muslims, it is also necessary to observe customs and rules in this mosque. Tickets are free, but you must take off your shoes and put on a headscarf. You can also rent a black robe outside the mosque. Trouble or borrow a black robe, the photo is pretty good, like I wear a denim jacket inside, it feels like the contractor is in the mosque to maintain it!
White building with a blue sky looks more luxurious.
