Portrait "HH the Late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al-Nahyan" at the "Al Ain" "Palace Museum", UAE ("Al-Ain")

---

Magnificent portrait of HH the Late Sheikh Zayed welcomes visitors to the Palace Museum. Note reflections in glass. Located in the South East of the City of Al-Ain, The Palace Museum was the former palace of the late HH Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, President of the UAE and dates back to 1937. Restoration work started in 1998. Visitors to Al-Ain, an oasis, will find this a magical place. The Palace Museum with its wonderfully picturesque defensive walls towers guarding the main gate offer visitors a chance to spend several hours exploring this complex. Areas inside include the family residence, Courts, Grand Court Tent and Gardens. Construction materials used are the traditional ones - Mud, milk, plaster, stones, straw and palm tree trunks, Note: Closed for maintenance on Saturdays. If planning a trip to Dubai, Al-Ain is well worth a if possible, a longer stay in this delightful area
