Abu Dhabi, a modern metropolis (United Arab Emirates)

A modern metropolis that combines futuristic skyscrapers with cultural masterpieces, ideal for exploring on foot to appreciate the contrasts between tradition and innovation. Among the must-see attractions, alongside the famous Louvre Abu Dhabi, are Qasr Al Hosn – the oldest stone building in Abu Dhabi, now a museum – and a visit to Qasr Al Watan: the presidential palace, which is a celebration of opulence and artistic mastery, from the Grand Hall to the library and the ‘presidential gifts’ room.
