Al Ain
Al-Ain is a cultural retreat for residents of the cities of Dubai and Abu Dhabi. It is home to a major festival of classical music.
Al Ain is the Garden city of this Arab nation, an oasis town located next to the Omani town of Buraimi. Al Ain is famous for its lively, bustling Camel Souk, attracting breeders and buyers from all over the UAE.
Timeless natural beauty
Al Ain’s nature is a breathtaking tapestry of deserts, mountains, beaches, parks, and wildlife, creating a truly stunning and mesmerizing landscape that will leave you in awe.
Camel Market
Al Ain’s famous and family-friendly camel market is a wonderful place in which to immerse yourself in traditional, authentic Arab culture – and also take a few fantastic photographs. From young Arabian camels that might grow up to be racers to beautiful adult camels ideal for breeding, the market is a one-of-a-kind experience offering a closer look at the animal that enjoys a special place in Emirati heritage.The market is located 15km away from downtown Al Ain, Abu Dhabi’s lush garden city and heritage heartland, and is a stark contrast from the big city, with trading taking place in the morning. However, it’s usually possible to see the herded animals all day long.Visiting travellers are welcome to get up close, attend mock races, take pictures with the camels and watch locals arrive in pickups laden with goats and sheep, ready to do some haggling.
Camel Market
The Al-Ain Camel Market is the last market of its kind in the entire country.
