The story of the Abu Dhabi Corniche
The Corniche runs along the northern shore of Abu Dhabi island, from the Breakwater to the port. Reclaimed and landscaped over decades, it is lined with gardens, cycle paths and the towers of the capital.
At its western end, the Heritage Village recreates traditional desert life, and nearby Qasr Al Hosn, the city's oldest stone building, tells the story of Abu Dhabi from a fishing and pearling settlement to a modern capital.
