The United Arab Emirates is a federation made up of seven emirates located in the Arabian Peninsula's southeast: Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Sharjah, Ajman, Umm Al-Quwain, Fujairah, and Ras Al Khaimah. Since its inception in 1971, the UAE now boasts the Middle East’s third-largest economy, boasting an impressive GDP of $415 billion. Accordingly, the federation developed modern infrastructure and now houses everything from architectural masterpieces, to sky-rise buildings, museums, and other touristic attractions. As well as having stunning beaches and great weather all year round. As a matter of fact, Dubai became the world's second-most visited city right after Paris, France in 2022.

With a rich and vibrant history, the UAE has everything from archaeological sites to luxury hotels, stunning mosques, and shopping malls. There are plenty of places to go in both Dubai and Abu Dhabi.

Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque Center

Named after the late UAE founding father and president, Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, the architectural masterpiece is one of the largest mosques in the federation and is the third-largest mosque in the world. The mosque is covered with marbled halls filled with breathtaking gold accents. Made by architects the world over, the mosque accommodates up to 50,000 worshippers each day and is open to visitors from Saturday to Thursday from 9:00 AM to 10:00 PM.

Louver Abu Dhabi Museum

            Located on Saadiyat Island, Abu Dhabi, the Louver Abu Dhabi Museum was born in 2007, out of a cultural collaboration between France and the UAE. The collaborative effort brings both the UAE’s definite and long-term goals for creating cultural dialogue, exchange, and progress with France’s knowledge and ingenuity in the world of art and museums. In fact, the eye-catching dome exterior was designed by French architect Jean Nouvel and blends both Arabic heritage with French architectural design. The louver Abu Dhabi aims to be a universal museum in the Arab world, showcasing stories of human creativity and ingenuity from different cultures, civilizations, and time periods. Accordingly, galleries are not geographically separated but instead arranged in chronological order, connecting and blending the cultures of the past with the present day. The aim is for the visitors to harbor respect and curiosity towards other cultures and encourage learning as well as open-mindedness.
