Al Ain is an oasis city and the second largest in the emirate of Abu Dhabi. Having a history dating back to the 4 millennium BC, Al Ain has grown into the modern city it is today only since unification. Planned as a garden city, the visitor is mesmerized the multitude of roundabouts, each offering a unique display of water, landscaping and sculpture. Boulevards are tree lined and there are no high rise buildings. Al Ain is the home of UAE University, the nation's largest museum, a huge zoo and many parks, gardens and guest houses. It is also one of the nation's leading agricultural centers and is now serviced by a new international airport.
