SIESTA TO FIESTA

Abu Dhabi

MIDDLE EAST · GOLDEN HOUR · MARBLE & MANGROVES
The quieter capital: a mosque of white marble, a Louvre under a floating dome, mangroves by kayak.
Etihad Towers on the Abu Dhabi corniche

The plan

Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque
Eighty-two domes of white marble — go at golden hour when the pools mirror it all.
Louvre Abu Dhabi
Rain-of-light dome over water — the building outshines even the collection.
Corniche sunset ride
Eight kilometers of waterfront cycleway facing the skyline.
Mangrove kayaking
Paddle green channels with herons ten minutes from downtown.
Qasr Al Watan
The working palace opens its marble halls — evenings bring the light show.
