Located
140 kilometers from Dubai at the foot of the mountains, also
the border lines of Oman, the historical city of Al
Ain is known for its modern charms mixed with the
lush of Green in the heart of the Desert, green beautiful
public parks, decorated Round About/Squares, gardens and wide
boulevards. Also known as the 'Garden City', Al Ain (literary
stands for: “The Eye”) is one of the most important
agricultural centers & archaeological sites of the Emirates
as well as a university town, where the UAE actually is planting
and producing a lot of the Vegetables for the local market.
Al Ain is a part of the Emirate/state of Abu Dhabi. And it
is Abu Dhabi’s main resort.
Jabel Hafit - Close to Al Ain, is this craggy
mountain rising steeply from the surrounding desert. An area
noted for its flora and fauna (it is one of the last remaining
habitats of the rare Arabian tahr), the mountain can be accessed
by excellent roads which wind its way right up to the summit,
providing a panoramic view of the Empty Quarter, which used
to be the most difficult part of Arabia for traveling, because
of its vastness and emptiness. Also of an interest are the
numerous caves, sites of archaeological excavations, and Ain
Al Fayda, a top health resort located over a natural hot spring.
At the foot of Jebel Hafeet are hot springs.
The area has been turned green with picnic spots. The Springs
are diverted along shallow channels- ideal for bathing the
feet in steaming therapeutic/Healing waters. When Water was
discovered in this Area, the UAE started investing in it to
bring it to its look today. The Hot Springs sits in an Oases
like area, with Green Grass. (see picture below).

The
Forts/Al Ain Museum - Location within the confines
of Al Jahili fort, the nation's largest museum is divided
into ethnological and historical sections. Interesting displays

BC, 500 BC stone instruments and relics dug up from Fossil
Valley.

Al Ain Zoo and Aquarium - The 1969 zoo houses
an extremely large and varied collection of wildlife from
all over the world. The zoo is also well known for its display
of Arabia's indigenous wildlife which includes the spectacular
Arabian Oryx. The Zoo also has a beautiful Aquarium. Al Ain
Zoo and Aquarium opened in 1969 and has since expanded into
one of the largest collections of both common and rare animals.
Arabian antelope and deer comprise a large area of the zoo.
A variety of African antelope, such as oryx , eland , gazzelle
and lechwe can be found in the tree shaded paddocks which
offer excellent breeding conditions.
