Slightly less famous (for now) than its neighbor Dubai, Abu Dhabi is actually the capital of the United Arab Emirates, home to the president and headquarters of embassies, oil companies, and international companies. It is one of the youngest nations in the world, but it has an ancient past. Less than a century ago, it was a fishing and pearl collecting station, dotted with makeshift shelters made of palm trees. Today, it is a lush city with Guinness World Record glass skyscrapers, wide tree-lined avenues, and endless public beaches. Here, being amazed is so common that it almost becomes a habit. Everything is oversized: there is the world's tallest tower, the largest handmade carpet in the world, and the largest amusement park in the world. Then relax on the beautiful white beaches of Phuket, which offers an unbeatable and perfect combination of white sand, palm trees, splendid hospitality, and accommodations for all needs.,
