UAE-ABU DHABI-TOURISM
TO GO WITH AFP STORY UAE-ABU DHABI -TOURISM
A night view of the Emirates Palace Hotel in Abu Dhabi 10 May 2005. Racing to catch up with bustling Dubai, the United Arab Emirates (UAE) capital of Abu Dhabi has adorned its Gulf coast with a sumptuous piece of architecture as part of moves to claim its share of tourists. On March 7, the city inaugurated the Emirates Palace, a fairy tale-like hotel which, with a massive arch at the entrance, 114 domes decorated with ceramic, huge marble pillars, 1,000-plus crystal chandeliers and halls as large as avenues, is more of a residence fit for royals than what would normally pass for a hotel.
