This nature-filled, central oasis city almost close to Oman’s border has been a staple go-to for residents in the UAE. Known for being the ‘Garden City’, this city boasts SO many beautiful places to see and admire.

If you’re down for a drive, and a change of setting this weekend or the next- here are a couple of things you can get up to:

1. Check out the tombs at Jebel Hafeet

…it dates all the way back to the Bronze Age!

Incredible.

People often come here to relax, unwind or take AWESOME photos with family and friends. The drive to this place is, in itself, quite an adventure!
