I had a long weekend in Dubai and I didn’t book any flight so I decided explore a city close by: Al Ain.
In 180 minutes I managed to:
- Explore one of the UAE’s most historic buildings: Al-Jahili Fort
- Learn about Al Ain unique heritage and history in Al Ain National Museum
- Enjoy the shade in Al Ain Oasis, a date palm plantation next to the national museum
- Drive UAE’s second highest peak: Jebel Hafeet
There is a good tourist information point in Al-Jahili Fort, so I recommend starting Al Ain exploration there.
