Please don't call me bed boy! they all will start calling me like this and i will look like a jiglow.


have you been to this place? If not you should think of coming here. The location is very difficult as there are not signs and boards.

You can drive on top of the mountain and its so high and you will feel like touching the clouds... than there u will have swiiming and an entire modern settlement. Its really breathtaking.

you should also checkout the beduoin village that is under the mountains in fujairah... what will happen is that when you go to that area in fujairah and you will be walking on the rocks and looking at the centuries old Forts then you will say! where is the village? yes this is unbelieveable! just look below you on the right on the edge... YOU WILL NOT BELIEVE YOU EYES!!! there is a civilisation underneath! with Falag Irrigations and massive palm trees below ground level...


Its too difficult to describe it with words.

Hmmm...I could call you BB but I have a female friend called Bibi, so it sounds too feminine. OK, will stick to Bedouin...

No, I have never been to any other emirate except Sharjah but will definitely make the effort at some point...sounds like a good place to get lost

Unhappy Re: The Best Kept Secret Of Al Ain! U.A.E.

Just joined the site. Was in Al Ain for many years - left this summer. These pictures are fantastic as is Al Ain regardless of marital status/age........... Lots of people say they have been for just one day or to stay the weekend at one of the hotels, but it is really worth so much more than that. Really recommend a visit. I really miss it

Thanks for those photos, they make me feel proud to be an Al Ainite. We do have some fantastic sights here as well as a very active social scene
