New Delhi: Indian visitors to Abu Dhabi will have an exciting new destination to check out from next year. The Saadiyat Cultural District in Abu Dhabi is on track for completion in 2025, the emirate’s department of culture and tourism reaffirmed Friday. It will include the Zayed National Museum, the national museum of the United Arab Emirates which will celebrate the nation’s rich history and culture, as well as honour the legacy of the country’s founding father, late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan.
There will also be the Natural History Museum Abu Dhabi, which will include a research and teaching institution that will take visitors on a 13.8-billion-year journey through the story of our universe and our planet. Guggenheim Abu Dhabi will be a museum celebrating art from the 1960s to the present and the most important artistic achievements of our time.
Once completed, the diversity of the Saadiyat Cultural District’s institutions will make the district one of the most unique cultural platforms. It is already the home of Louvre Abu Dhabi, the first universal museum in the Arab world, showcasing artworks from different cultures side by side and telling a story of human connections. Nearby, Berklee Abu Dhabi has music, performing arts and educational programmes throughout the year.
