A Must-See Masterpiece in Abu Dhabi

Qasr Al Watan is truly one of the most stunning cultural landmarks in the UAE. The palace is breathtaking from the moment you walk in – the scale, the architecture, and the intricate details are absolutely magnificent. Every room showcases something unique, and you really get a sense of the craftsmanship and heritage that went into creating this incredible place. The exhibits are beautifully presented and offer a fascinating look into the UAE’s history, governance, and traditions. We especially enjoyed the interactive displays and the chance to wander through at our own pace. The grounds are immaculate, and the staff were friendly, helpful, and organised, which made the entire visit smooth and enjoyable. It’s a place that feels both educational and awe-inspiring, and definitely a must-see for anyone visiting Abu Dhabi. Highly recommended – we left with a real appreciation for the palace and can’t wait to return with friends and family.

Impressive

A huge, pharaonic building. I didn't fully understand its usefulness but it is magnificent. Everything shines, there is luxury and opulence at every step. Impressive! If you come by public transport, the path to the palace is not well signposted and you don't know which direction to go from the bus station. There is also a café where you can have a snack or drink something (without alcohol only).

Most beautiful modern building

Most beautiful modern building in the world. Well the Great Mosque pipped it. Go before sunset, take the tour, look at the gift museum, take photos at night, see the light show outside projected onto the building.
