Old Abu Dhabi: 11 best spots to uncover the history of the capital
Abu Dhabi, the capital of the UAE, is a place where modern marvels and rich history coexist. With its gleaming skyscrapers, luxury malls, cultural treasures, and sun-drenched beaches, it’s easy to be dazzled by the present. But beneath this glamorous surface lies a story of transformation that has shaped the emirate into what it is today.
Imagine this: over 100,000 years ago, early settlers made their home here, leaving behind traces of their ancient existence. Fast forward to 1761, when the Bani Yas tribe stumbled upon fresh water on what was then a remote island—Abu Dhabi. This discovery wasn’t just a stroke of luck; it was the beginning of a thriving civilization, built on the foundations of pearl diving and fishing.
The Al Nahyan family, descendants of the Bani Yas tribe, charted an incredible journey from the Liwa Oasis to the historic Qasr Al Hosn in 1793, establishing their rule and laying the groundwork for the future.
As the centuries passed, the landscape of Abu Dhabi changed dramatically, especially with the advent of the oil and gas industry. In 1958, the discovery of oil beneath the Gulf’s pearling beds marked a turning point, leading to the first-ever crude oil export in 1962 and sparking the transformation of the emirate.
The year 1971 was another defining moment. Under the visionary leadership of Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, Abu Dhabi played a pivotal role in the formation of the United Arab Emirates, setting the stage for the modern, dynamic city we know today.
For those curious to explore Abu Dhabi’s rich past, these historical sites and experiences are your gateway to the stories that shaped this remarkable city.

There are many, many reviews and summaries out there of the best – and most over the top – places to stay in Dubai. But finding somewhere a bit more low key can be trickier. As an expat living in the Arabian Peninsula I have travelled frequently to Dubai, and have tried and tested many different hotels to find the hidden gems amongst the skyscrapers. Hopefully this will give you some inspiration for the more boutique, and characterful, places to stay.

A once sleepy port on the coast of the Arabian Gulf, Dubai is now a world-famous holiday destination, not to mention, one of my all time favourite cities. There is such a variety of things to do here, but the many tourist traps ensure that it is not the easiest place to navigate (without some guidance). Despite being voted Tripadvisor's "Top Destination" for the third year in a row, I still meet people who tell me that they have only seen the inside of the malls and their resort.
But don't worry! I'm here to save you from that limited experience. Especially because you've probably travelled quite far to get there. I grew up in the UAE as a child and I moved back there in my twenties, so I feel I know Dubai like the back of my hand. I love bringing people to this part of the Middle East and showing them that there is so much more than shopping, luxury hotels and private beaches. And even better, it's not really an expensive destination...!
Below you'll find an introduction to this ever-evolving city as I walk you through the areas you are going to want to see and the activities you just cannot miss! Here is my honest guide to Dubai.
