Al Ain

Al Ain

“Oasis” city that is worth a detour. The visit of its archaeological site of Hili, its national museum as well as its collections of archeology and ethnography constitute the cultural richnesses of this city located at the edge of Rub Al Khali. Called the Garden City for its lush parks, this picturesque town sits beneath the Hajar Mountains, and offers forts and attractions reminiscent of a bygone era. It is the largest expanse of sand in the world.
