United Arab Emirates

The United Arab Emirates, often called the Emirates or the UAE, is a country located in the southeast end of the Arabian Peninsula on the Persian Gulf bordering Oman to the east and Saudi Arabia to the south as well as sharing sea borders with Qatar and Iran. For most people the United Arab Emirates mean just one place, Dubai, the city of iconic skyscrapers, man-made islands, city-sized malls and luxury beach resorts. But guess what, there is much more beyond Dubais glitter. A diverse mosaic of other six emirates awaits you, each one with its own character and allure. An hour’s drive to the south, oil-rich Abu Dhabi, the country’s capital, is quickly gaining a reputation as a hub of culture, sport and leisure. Beyond its borders looms the vast Al Gharbia desert surrounded by magical silence. North of Dubai, Sharjah has the country’s best museums, while tiny Ajman and Umm Al Quwain provide glimpses of life in the pre-oil days. The Ras Al Khaimah emirate is busy building up its tourism infrastructure. And the best swimming and diving is offered in the emirate Fujairah surrounded by scenic Hajar Mountains.
