Beautiful Place

What a tranquil spiritual place! We had an amazing visit. If you go in the evening before sunset you see it in both lights. The abaya they give you is clean and comfortable to wear and everyone we came into contact with were friendly.

Magical place, most visit if you go to Abu Dhabi. Please remember to wear proper clothes, specially women that have to cover hair, long sleeves and long pants covering everything.
