Al Ain Travel Itineraries
Explore Al Ain, an idyllic oasis shimmering in the middle of the sandy desert in the UAE. Nicknamed the Garden City of the Arabian Gulf for green stretches such as the Al Ain Oasis, this mammoth forest of swaying palms is watered by a traditional irrigation system. An important stop on the erstwhile caravan route between Oman and the Gulf, Al Ain today is a sprawling city marked by towering skyscrapers and UNESCO-listed sites scattered around, speaking to its reputation as a hub of culture. For travelers, the best way to witness the color and life in Al Ain is to stroll through its souks or local markets and soak up the heady sights and aromas. Just on the edge of the oasis lies the Al Jahili Fort offering panoramic views of the landscape from its summit. Equally stunning are the views from the Jebel Hafeet, the second-highest peak in the UAE, which you can reach on four wheels or two!
