Fuerte Al Muwaiji

Al Muwaiji Fort in Al Ain was the residence of Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed, the second president of the Emirates. Carefully restored, its mud-brick walls and tower house an exhibition on the history of the ruling family. A serene place to learn about the region's past. It can be combined with other forts and museums in Al Ain in a single day. Its courtyards are very pleasant at sunset. 📷 Photographs courtesy of Zahid Shabbir (CC BY-SA 4.0) and Mohammed Hassanein (CC BY-SA 4.0), via Wikimedia Commons.
