Not only plans, the sheikhs for several years at SodBi and Kristi buy almost all Islamic art (archeology, books, applied art, ceramics, etc.) ... At the expense of contemporary Middle Eastern art (painting, sculpture), I think, the most best, too, in their collections.

Well, at least something in Abu Dhabi can be viewed. And there has only Heritage Village and the presidential palace. Moreover, in the Heritage Village has nothing to do (and because there was nothing to watch), but in the presidential palace, of course, are not allowed. Although the night, with lighting, it looks great - as in a fairy tale of 1000 Arabian Nights. In general, Abu Dhabi, between us, - d, while the rich. Dubai, in comparison with Abu Dhabi - another planet - although there, by and large, tourist attractions, too, there is little besides the skyscrapers and supermollov. But to go and look in any case interesting.
