Abu Dhabi
Everything in Abu Dhabi is contemporary, smooth and glistening. It may have more luster than ambiance, but it does have its exquisite tourist attractions. If you just cast a look underneath the surface of the modern Abu Dubai, you are sure to find the traces of a lustrous village that Abu Dhabi was some time back. The city's old fort, streets that help to discover the local history, the ancient and modern Islamic art and the ageless life of wharf and souk, all are the eternal attractions of Abu Dhabi. |
Al-Ain
Al-Ain, the major town in the Buraimi Oasis, stands astride the border between Abu Dhabi and Oman. The sister town of Al-Ain is Buraimi, which is located on the Omani side of the border. The visitors are given permission to move freely between the two, without any need of obtaining a visa. This has become the finest way to get a taste of Oman.
Dubai City
Dubai is the exemplary home of sand, sun and shopping, all together. The tourists can discover the two sides of Dubai-the lustrous, future-oriented world of large mirrored skyscrapers, air-conditioned cool malls and artificial islands; and on the other side, old Dubai, which is perhaps most evidently epitomized by its primordial mosques and countless souks.
The city is expanded all along the both banks of the Creek. The central business district of Dubai is divided into two parts- on the northern side Deira and to the south Bur Dubai. A tunnel and two bridges connect both of the districts. Both the cities are decorated with sites of tourists' interest, fine mosques, busy souks, public buildings, shopping malls, office towers, hotels, apartments and villas. As you would cast your first look at the city, you would feel the city to have a primarily modern face that represents an ever-changing skyline of new developments. The city offers everything, from outstanding mirror and concrete skyscrapers to affable modern buildings, which further incorporate the traditional Arabian architectural features and motifs.
Sharjah

Sharjah is the third largest of the seven emirates. It is one of the most popular places of Emirates, thanks to the game of Cricket. It offers the tourists to see the largest mosque in the UAE, some of the most appealing architecture in the country, and plenty of other sights. Some of the famous tourists attractions here are Natural history museum, souks, and an ancient souk that represents the older way of life whose just the memories are alive today. You should definitely purchase the Persian carpets of Sharjah either as a souvenir or décor item.
Souks or markets
The souks, much famous word for the traditional markets of Dubai, are one of Dubai's utmost attractions. You can find them at the both sides of the creek. Still, they are the most impressive on the side of Deira. Wandering around the souks is such a pleasurable activity for the tourists that it becomes difficult for them to come out of its memories for a long time.
