Al Ain, Abu Dhabi A Beautiful Place
It was November 2006, when I first visited Al Ain, Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. Al Ain is the Garden City of the United Arab Emirates. Al Ain is the destination of the many Emirati nationals during summer because of its low humidity. Many Emirati nationals have houses in Al Ain, they make it as their vacation house, Al Ain is also popular as their weekend destinations.
During my stay in Al Ain, Abu Dhabi, it was cold and rainy. As if I was in Baguio, Philippines, am I dreaming I said to myself because what I expect is a hot weather. Infact, there was a heavy rainfall during my stay there. My sister took me in their working place, at Al Ain University (Girls College). She’s been working there since 1989 up to the present. Uh! That was long years.:).
There are many great destinations in Al Ain, Abu Dhabi. I have been to Hili Fun City, Al Ain National Museum, and the Jebel Hafeet. This Jebel Hafeet is 1340 metre high mountain, you can see Oman if your on top of the Jebel Hafeet. So many people drive through this mountain during sunset, and in the night you can see the lights of the road going to the Jebel Hafeet mountain, it’s very attracting to all the tourist. I was so amaze with this place because it very green, with lots of date trees in the street and has many well maintained parks.
The Sheikh Khalifa Bin Zayed Stadium, is one of the best stadium in Asia, it is equipt with high tech equipments. This is the place where the competition of football league usually held, wether it is national competitions or local competitions. By the way football is their national game, the emirates loved football. Infact in every place in their community they have a sports club for the emirates people.
At Al Ain, Abu Dhabi, UAE I had a very adventurous visit, I hope to see this place again in the future.
