Tbh, nothing! Except for the hall, nothing intrigued us! It was a boring tour, and add to that the unavailablility of basic services, like drinking water, the whole trip felt like a waste of time.

My ticketing experience was excellent and I got a real good deal on Headout. Though Qasr Al watan is a beautiful palace, try visiting during cooler months to make most of it as the light show is outdoors and it is really humid during summer months.

This place is stunning with absolutely breathtaking interior and exterior. My favourite part of the visit was The Light Show. Would recommend to go there just before last admission as it's too long waiting time before the light show. It's a MUST place to go.

Super but just do not forget that a dress code is obligatory to visit. No skinny and short clothes, and shoulders must be covered. Except that, Qasr al Watan is wonderful site to visit ❤️❤️❤️

An architectural marvel

Nestled in Abu Dhabi, Qasr Al Watan is a presidential palace that was recently opened to the public. One of the finest examples of Arabic architecture and craftsmanship, the palace's design signifies its heritage and its future vision. The palace has its own library with books on a wide range of subjects including archaeology, history, heritage, memoirs, biographies, human and social sciences, statistics, administration, culture, literature, arts, etc. It also has its own gift shops; one at the Visitors Center and the other at the palace building. One of the major attractions of the palace is its light and sound show, which depicts the history and growth of the UAE as a nation. This show has been divided into three acts: past, present, and future.
