My visit to the Louvre Abu Dhabi was a real surprise. The building itself is impressive as soon as you arrive. There is something very calming about the large dome and the play of light underneath. Inside you will find a mixture of well-known works of art and exciting pieces from different cultures, well explained and pleasantly presented. What I particularly liked: You have enough space to look at everything in peace without feeling crowded. The outdoor area by the water is also beautiful and perfect for taking a deep breath. The staff were friendly and attentive, which made the visit uncomplicated. Overall, definitely a place to take in Abu Dhabi and not just for art lovers, but for anyone who likes special places. 😌

My visit to the Zayed National Museum, located in the heart of the Saadiyat Cultural District in Abu Dhabi, was truly inspiring. The museum beautifully celebrates the rich history, culture, and stories of the UAE, highlighting the nation’s journey from ancient times to the modern day. Walking through the galleries, I gained a deeper appreciation for the legacy of the UAE’s Founding Father, the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan. His vision, wisdom, and values are reflected in every part of the museum. Through engaging exhibitions, insightful research, and thoughtful public programmes, the museum shows how Sheikh Zayed’s principles continue to shape the UAE’s identity and guide its people. It was an unforgettable and meaningful experience.

Visiting the Louvre Abu Dhabi was an unforgettable revelation! From the very first steps under its dazzling dome, I felt a sense of awe — as if I had entered another dimension where history and art breathe together. The paintings, sculptures, and ancient artifacts are mesmerizing and transport you through different eras. I especially loved the convenient audio guide app — it made exploring the galleries even more engaging and enriching. This museum inspires genuine wonder, gratitude, and creativity — a place you immediately want to return to!

    I have seen this ship-like structure being built and was curious about it. So when it finally opened, I was excited to visit . A beautiful building inside out. Firstly we got good parking, there were helpful staff to direct us to the entrance. There's a security checkpoint but it was quite efficient and friendly staff so not a bother. Another staff scanned our tickets and gave instructions as needed. There were selfserve kiosks and a reception area to buy tickets if needed. The signs were clear and quite easy to tour the galleries on our own or with a guide. We got so enthused with the artifacts and the history of the UAE in the ground floor, it's a good thing a staff told us other galleries are on the next floor or we would've spent all our time there. I liked that there were seats at intervals to rest while reading or watching a video. Very interesting displays, I like the section upstairs where we go through a boat to really embrace the history of maritime era where they did Pearl diving etc. Interesting to learn how they got fresh water from the sea in that era. After the tour we got a buggy ride through the garden and stopped at the Cafe by the waterfront. Beautiful experience overall.

    Great architectural marvel. Really shows the founding of the nation and the vision behind it. Highly recommended. From the entrance, the interiors, and overall experience, it was worth the ticket price and the drive to Abu Dhabi.
