To immerse yourself in another culture is to put all your stereotypes away and learn with an open mind other people’s views and beliefs. A highly visited destination, Abu Dhabi has the one of the world’s largest mosque, named Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, which is now not only a place of worship for the Islam religion but a big tourist attraction given the beauty of the place. So much thought and money was put into this mosque it even holds the worlds largest chandelier under its main dome in the main prayer hall. Take a free tour of the place scheduled daily and learn all about how it was built and how its used. When I was in the courtyard and the call to prayer came on the loud speakers, the earth stood still for me as I looked all around me in admiration of their dedication they put into it, a very special moment that made me realize I was totally on the other side of the world. With Dubai two hours away by car and so many attractions to see in this city do not forget to visit Ferrari World and get on the world’s fastest roller coaster.
