- Al Jahili Fort - At this point of the tour we will get to learn about one of the largest forts in the UAE( built in 1890),previously known as the summer residence of the ruling Al Nahyan family. Later it was transformed into a tourist attraction and cultural center.

The Palace houses an impressive collection of documents on the ruling Al Nahyan family and it was built in the traditional architectural style of the Bedouins in 1937. Here we will see the private rooms and gardens once occupied by Sheikh Zayed and his family until 1966, when they moved to Abu Dhabi.
