But at last in Abu Dhabi Mamsha Al Saadiyat offer a fusion of sophistication and comfort.
Emirates Palace
If you’re in the emirate of Abu Dhabi, you can’t leave without witnessing the grandeur of the Emirates Palace. The 114 domes of the Palace that span across almost half a mile from one wing to the other are a sight you can’t help but be mesmerized by. Surrounded by green landscapes that provide a natural ambience to the environment, the Palace becomes nothing less than the perfect artwork done by a maestro.
It becomes luxuriously rich in opulence and magnificence in the day and outrightly brilliant by night. Moreover, the central dome changes colours to entertain those who behold the beauty in their eyes.
Once you head inside, prepare to be amazed by the gold, pearl and opal designs that line the walls, ceilings and fixtures. Needless to say, a palace even with royal décor would fall short when competing with what you see inside the Emirates Palace. To have an idea, start counting the 1,000 chandeliers that hang from the ceiling. In addition to this, look for the two handmade wall display carpets that each weigh a ton, showing the artistic work of images portraying the palace.
