As I have lived in the UAE for several years (mainly Dubai), I have visited this capital city on various occasions and saw some of the unique attractions such as the Grand Mosque, Emirates Palace, Corniche/Marina waterfront area, Yas Island & Ferrari World, as well as the modern architecture all around.
I was also fortunate to attend many lively and colorful celebrations here such as the UAE’s National Day and New Year’s Eve (photos further below)
Let’s start with a collection of aerial photos from the many times I’ve flown here, showing the city’s beautiful setting among colorful its islands and mangroves:
