Browse all Emirates
Abu Dhabi
The UAE's largest emirate balances grand landmarks like the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque with island escapes, desert dunes and a slower, stately pace.
Dubai
Record-breaking towers, gold souks, desert safaris and beach clubs — Dubai packs the future and the old trading city into one restless skyline.
Sharjah
UNESCO's Arab Capital of Culture rewards the curious — museums, restored heritage quarters, and a coastline on two seas.
Ras Al Khaimah
Home to the UAE's highest peak and the world's longest zipline — RAK trades skyscrapers for nature and adventure.
Fujairah
The only emirate on the Gulf of Oman — coral reefs, the oldest mosque in the country, and mountains tumbling to the sea.
Ajman
The smallest emirate keeps things relaxed — a long sandy corniche, a fine fort museum, and dhow-building yards still at work.
Umm Al Quwain
The least-developed emirate is a window on the pre-oil Gulf — lagoons, birdlife, an old town of coral-stone houses and a famous mangrove drive.
