Abu Dhabi is the largest of the seven Emirates and the Federal capital of the United Arab Emirates. A well planned modern city with several high-rise buildings, impressive palaces, beautiful corniches and architectural mosques. Visit Al-Hosn Palace, the Old Fort, built in the late 19th century, making it the oldest buildings in town. At the eastern end of the Corniche, near the port, lies Abu Dhabi's fish market and dhow wharf, offering an excellent view of the city's skyline. Stop at a carpet market where a huge variety of fabulous carpets from all around the world are being sold at very affordable prices. Halt for lunch at a hotel restaurant before returning to Dubai.
