The Louvre is a particularly worthwhile place to visit, with many historical monuments, and it is also a good place to check in. There is a bus that goes directly to the mosque.
The price is not expensive and it is worth a visit. It is not comparable to the original Louvre, but it is still worth a visit for its unique architectural style and the sea view that can be seen everywhere. For those who are not interested in museums, there are many places to take pictures, which is easy to take pictures.

Amazing, specially to the one love speed and card. The fast and the tallest rolling coasters in the world are there. They are pure adrenaline. The scenery is beautiful too.
It's a fully indoor amusement park, which is very reasonable. There are not many people, and you don't need to buy an express pass. Unlike Universal and Disney, they have useless scenery that makes you walk to death just to expand the park area, accommodate more people, and sell more tickets.

From the exciting Ferrari Park to the Warner Bros. Studios that recreates memories, to the Atlantis-like underwater world, it is a great place for family travel and a great place to reminisce about childhood and dreams.
The image is more profound is the bird garden, which has a wide variety and is close to people. In the aquarium, the walrus is really big! There are a lot of people taking pictures and punching in, and you have to queue up. Very happy to play. Much better than the future science and technology museum in Dubai. The performance schedule of each venue is reasonable, and the picture is 5. Some venues are very cold. It is recommended to bring a thick coat. I am about to catch a cold. There are amusement facilities, but I didn't go to sit. I called back and forth, and it was very convenient to call at the entrance of the aquarium. The taxi over there is so clean and tasteless.

The roller coaster is super exciting, but it really makes your legs weak when you get off. There are not many places suitable for children who are too young to play. Warner is more suitable for children. They are all indoors, and it is also very comfortable to play in summer. The queue time is not long compared to domestic amusement parks, which is good.
The place is not very big, it is more for children, there are no exciting projects, there are four or five 4D dynamic movie projects, of which the quality of Green Lantern and Batman is very average. It can be finished in 2~3 hours. Overall, the grade is similar to Fantawild. You cannot bring your own drinks and food, and your backpack will be checked at the entrance.

Abu Dhabi, in the United Arab Emirates, is a truly worthwhile destination. Stepping into the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque in Abu Dhabi, from One Thousand and One Nights, was truly breathtaking! Not only is it one of the largest mosques in the world, it's a masterpiece that blends Islamic architecture with modern design.
Tips:
‼️ Regarding clothing, both men and women should wear long sleeves and long pants/long trousers. Clothing should be free of images of animals or skulls☠️. Sleeves and pants should ideally cover the wrists or ankles! ✊Note! Women should also wear a headscarf to prevent their hair from showing.
This was an extremely pretty Islamic mosque especially during sunset. It was very big and has a lot of parking spaces.

City complex of five skyscrapers

This place is a place you will regret if you don't go there. The scenery is nice, but the main drawback is that the glass around it is very dirty, and everything you see is black.
Other high-altitude observation towers usually introduce you to what buildings are underneath and when they were built. This one has no introduction, so you just stare at it. The Middle East Building is not much different.
It seems that you can buy coffee at certain times. I went there in the morning, but there was nothing there. I walked around and left in disappointment.
This is the filming location of the movie "Fast and Furious", with five towering buildings. This year, the 53rd anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China was decorated with colorful lights along the 10-kilometer corniche promenade.
This is a place to celebrate Western festivals, and Christmas trees are everywhere in December.
There is a famous observation deck on the 74th floor, which overlooks the entire city of Abu Dhabi. It is a tourist attraction that families and friends visit.

nice park, clean area, clean pools. a must visit destination for fun and thrills. the staff are friendly, we spent an exhilarating day and well recommended
Perfect experience, simply amazing, far above expectations, but the process was a bit confusing at the beginning, which delayed some time. The water world can be visited for the second time, and the dressing room focuses on family and privacy, which is very good!
We usually go there, and there are much fewer people than in China, but there are many people compared to other parks on Yas Island. It closes at 9 pm that day, and fastpass is still useful, especially for some large and exciting water projects and ceiling roller coasters. There is basically no need to queue after 8 pm.

The place definitely worth visiting. But when we go thBut, not all the rooms are open, which is a bit disappointed and feel doesn't worth the money
The attractions were all fantastic, especially TeamLab, which was stunning. I also saw some of the original artworks the instructor mentioned at the Louvre Maritime, which were quite impressive. The ticket is very convenient, as it allows entry at any time of day. But be sure not to buy it too early; it'll cost you 60 or 71 yuan more than later, which is a real pain.

Opposite the hotel is the Emirates Palace. I thought it would be better to have a meal than afternoon tea, so I ordered a buffet lunch. The buffet at 650 yuan per person really didn't have much to eat. The seafood was few and average, not worth the price. Even coffee had to be paid separately. Afternoon tea was in the lobby, and the snacks looked good? The waiters along the way were very polite, answering every question, and there was a guard every three steps. To be honest, you would really get lost without someone to guide you.
What a Fantanstic Place! The kids enjoy the sea and food is superb. The staff are very friendly and service is 5 🌟.
