The place is nicely themed
Not to mention fountains to go with the theme too
The mall has many of these tall spire tent thingies
Inside the mall which everyone's talking about
Overlooking the bus bays
The entrance of the Marina mall
Spotted a stretch hummer on our way back to the Marina mall.
All laid by the bay side
Traditional Arabian boats on display
Inside the compound
A housing area
Giant coffee pot= win!
Yup, as the sign says...
A small market area
Boat building courtyard
There are quackers here too!
A small stream and park by the end of the site
Which uses gravity to pull items on land
An Arabian engineering contraption on display
Rather interesting smiley looking fountain!
Presenting to you...
Back into the village!
Thankful for shade!
Oh yes of course!
See the hotel?
A small berth serving the center
Jeff by the bay
complete with random boat!
Excellent chill out spot
Including the Emirates palace hotel in the distance
Offering breathtaking sights of the Abu Dhabi skyline
Follow the sands and it will lead you to the beach!
It's just like being at the desert again!
Each item is all properly elaborated with an info display
which you can never fit into...
and tiny tents...
complete with horses
Omg, replica desert encampment!
Is that a mini desert I see?
As well as firearms
Good thing it's all air-conditioned :P
archaeological specimens on display
Each telling a story of their own
The center spots many museums too
It's like a mini self-sufficient town
Including places of worship
With several stores lining the attractions
The place is both a cultural, educational and commerical site
Ducks included!
Complete with a full flowing fountain
