Al Ain is the Garden city of this Arab nation, an oasis town located next to the Omani town of Buraimi. Al Ain is famous for its lively, bustling Camel Souk, attracting breeders and buyers from all over the UAE, including merchants and shepherds from the Al Rashaidah tribes. Other worthwhile sites are Jebel Hafeet, the second tallest mountain in the UAE; the Al Ain Museum and Fort, built to protect the oasis from the raiders when Sheikh Zayed ruled the Eastern Region; and the Al Ain Wildlife Park & Resort. The Al Ain Oasis is the biggest in the region with thousands of date plams.

We had a little trouble finding the Oasis via Google - it is just down the road (less than 200yards) from the original home of Sheik Zayed. We had a snack at the small Oasis restaurant before walking through the maze of stone roads/paths. They have 2 and 4 person bike rentals which looked like fun but we decided to walk. It may have been about a 2 mile walk to get a good feel for the Oasis.
