Traditional wells Heritage Village Review

A trip to the Heritage Village is good for introducing yourself with the traditional UAE culture before undertaking a real life 4 wheel drive to the interior of the country.

The hosts are very friendly, especially towards the children. The young ones will end up getting many gifts.

Children will enjoy camel rides and playing with Saluki dogs.

Address: Abu Dhabi Breakwater.

Watch towers

There are many watch towers that you will still notice standing tall on the hill tops of the UAE during your off road driving adventures. The watch towers were built to warn the inhabitants of villages of approaching bandits.

The design of the watch towers is characteristically human face shaped with a nose, ears two eyes.

A look at the heritage. Heritage Village Review

The two Heritage Villages of Abu Dhabi deserve an evening of exploration.

We visited the Heritage Village of the Abu Dhabi Breakwater with my sister and her daughter who visited us from Pakistan in 2004 on the eve of our departure from UAE for Canada.

The entrance is free and the hosts are extremely courteous.

You will be able to see traditional Arabian village life in the Heritage Village.
