and he offered to show me around he drives a pony at Grand Prix 1972 as you probably know UAE is a Muslim country and Muhammad price five times a day so whenever he was showing me around he always remembered when it was was time to pray so he would just find the nearest mosque and it didn't matter which one Muhammad showed great hospitality and we even visited his parents' home where we watched

and maybe I'm learning now to make it by Russian one all right we got gaming steering wheel computer big screen yeah is living like a hotel yeah it's like a five star hotel wow look at that the emirat of rasle Kama has a great combination of mountains the beach and the desert we've already seen the mountains and the beach so let's visit visit the desert also you'll find numerous camel Farms outside the city and camel farming is a good business to raise camels for meat for racing for milk and so many other things there's also actually a racing track not far from it but we checked it out nobody's racing camels today unfortunately next Emirate on the list is the second smallest and the least populous Emirate in the UAE umal Kain and I bet you've never heard of it umal Kain it's rowned for its Serenity and slow pace of Life while offering great beaches and desert Dunes um Kain hasn't discovered much oil or gas and mostly depends on revenue from tourism and fishing now also the focus has been shifted towards expanding its commercial and investment base with the construction of Ahmed bin Rashid port and the free trade zone here are some places that I recommend you visit um Kain Fort it was once home to the Emirates ruler and guarded the entrance to the old town this fort acted as the government headquarters from 17 1968 till 1969 and part of that was the prison so if you're a bad boy this is where you go see you in a few years and later it became a police station and then a museum you will see local artifacts and the collection of weapons that we use throughout the Emirates history if you're looking for some beach fun um Kain has a number of fantastic places check out Kai Beach center it's a pet friendly place and has Zanzibar Vibes this is a special place for pets it even has a shower for pets nail cutting hair anything for your pets so relax soak up the sun on the beach learn surfing and kite surfing there's a certified kite surfing school exercise at Tarzan gym and have a great time so easy right yes no stress in this place be happy kindly Akuna mat Akuna mat for lunch we went to a fish restaurant this is a famous restaurant for seafood now this is a favorite among locals but I'm not sure too many tourists know about it of course you got to try some seafood it's going to be fresh delicious and much cheaper than in Dubai and I ordered sea base we also got some shrimp seafood soup rice and all kinds of veggies and by the way this is local CL and Arabic we have this very long and very old it's like little of perfume you put it and you mix it for your hands so they take the full smell away from you meanwhile we stopped to check out Flamingo Hotel fun fact my parents stayed in it a few years ago so I was curious to look at it it's a nice resort with a beautiful beach but what's cool about it is that they arrange trips to the mangroves to watch flamingos one of the things to do in um Kain is go bird watching specifically flamingos um Kain has Rich Coastal mangroves this is probably as close as you can get to the birds because the waters are so shallow and if you get any closer you're going to Spook the birds can you show me some fish yes only one now okay there are many other beach resorts along the coast and if you're looking for a bargain and enjoy Serenity then Umar Kain might just be what you're looking for next Emer on the list is Chara Chara is the third larg Emirate in the UAE the city of sha is the capital of the Emirate and the third most populous city in the country after Dubai and Abu Dhabi with a population of 1.8 million people welcome to sha guys it's a City full of parks you know it's just so green it's so enjoyable charia was the first one in the Gulf region to adopt a 4-day working week so you have four working days and 3day weekend isn't that beautiful it's a dry Emirate which which means that alcohol is not sold in hotels or bars not serving alcohol has helped charger increase the number of Islamic tourists and become the Islamic culture capital of 2014 I remember my first time in the UAE was 1996 my dad took me over here and when the plane landed first sign that I saw was smile you are in charge and they still use that motto up to this this day let's visit some cool places and right now we're going to al-nur Island which is a beautiful Park familyfriendly and they also have a butterfly house there's going to be a nice collection of butterflies it's an Island Oasis in the middle of the city that's known for its tropical biosphere filled with floating butterflies al-nur island is like a little Tropical Paradise you know I've always wondered why Arabian Deserts are so different from a desert in Arizona for example because Arizona you will have huge cacti and why don't they have cacti in Arabian Deserts well I found some but of course these are in a park not in the in the real desert alnor mosque it is of Turkish ottoman design and was influenced by the sultan ahed mosque in Turkey it is open to the public and you can step inside and take some pictures alajas Waterfront is a nice Lakeside Park with restaurants great views as plash Park and the Musical Fountain at night Char Museum of Islamic civilization this Museum demonstrates Islamic civilization and culture spent in a period of centuries in a visualized way they have a good collection of artifacts and it's not just about religion but also about science astronomy architecture and craftsmanship charia aquarium it might not be the largest but it is certainly enjoyable and showcases the variety of marine life native to the seas around the UAE it consists of two floors embracing 21 aquariums and filled with 1.8 million L of water check out rain room if you like experimental art Rainboom allows visitors to walk through a downpour without getting wet guys I'm going to show you a trick I'm going to walk in the rain and I'm going to come out dry let's do it and apparently there's some sensors that see where you are and the rain stops following your you know movements you know it's like pouring down but you're still very very dry to be honest if you walk fast you're still going to get a few drops but in the hot weather of the UAE you're probably not going to complain next place whom I want to visit in charge is alisen or Chara Fort is a fort that was originally constructed in 1820 by the then ruler of Chara Shake saltan been soccer Al casimi it was partially demolished in 1970 but now it's been restored you can discover the weapons and the defense strategies used by the shakes and their guards as well as the lifestyle of the ruling family as I was exiting the fort I met a guy from Saudi Arabia hello hello my friend what's your name my name is Sal Al Rashid nice to meet you from Saudi Arabia oh you are yeah okay and what are you doing in charia um I am a footballer yeah really which club you play for I play with the sporty club uh the Kuwait clubs but uh play in division 3 in

Emirate go this H and you can maybe you meet someone like uh my friend from Russia at taking some interview small interview okay well good luck with your career good luck bro good nice to meet you brother thank you today Chara has grown into a center for arts and culture it is home to nearly quarter of all the uae's museums and to many popular events alasa is a lively destination for food fun and inspiration at popular location to visit that features restaurants art centers and outdoor attractions this Waterfront Community often hosts various events so check the schedule Chara has so many nice beaches I was staying at an inexpensive loo Resort and the beach was very enjoyable and this is a public beach for example alhan Beach and this is yet another public beach Kira Beach this is the longest one in the city extending 3.5 km it's so long that it might be a good idea to run a scooter or a bicycle to see all of it and that's exactly what I did in 2022 Chara made history when its public sector adopted a 4-day work in week and a 3-day weekend becoming the first region in the entire Middle East to do so the Amir of Chara also has enclaves on the East Coast so let's relocate to the Gulf of Oman the city of carakan it's a city of 43,000 people on the Gulf of Oman it has a Container Terminal and port and a gorgeous crescent-shaped beach with endless choices for fun and the water from fishing to diving to Paras saling and kayaking there's a very nice prominade that runs along the beach front against the backdrop of the haar mountains archaeological sites include ancient Graves and the Portuguese Fort if you didn't know this this town was captured by the Portuguese Empire in the 16th century and was among the Fortified cities that the Portuguese used to control access to the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman in the city of carakan you can visit the old Portuguese Fort at least what's left of it and also right beside it is a Heritage Village which is uh pretty amazing hello come and visit her Village [Applause] in [Music] this is how the living room used to look like in 17th century it's like bedroom and everything all in one room it's all in one room okay

if you want to have lunch with a breathtaking view 580 m above sea level Alisa dam is a stunning Lake in the mountains ideal for kaying and boating around the lake or just a cool place to grab a snack and take some cool pictures a visit to carican is not complete without visiting the Old Market which has been restored in the same style as the original Market this is where we ran into a Cars Club again charge a classic cars Club yes as you have noticed people love cars in the UAE some guys I talked to had a collection of up to 200 cars but not everyone wanted to be on camera there's a good collection of cars here and actually this club will have a bigger event near charers airport next week which will include 150 classic cars so if you're in UAE come and check it out meanwhile we are in carakan beautiful town and it's evening time and I think we should go for a walk because it's so beautiful I'm really surprised it seems like people have a lot of passion for classic cars in UAE and so there's so many car events happening at the same time if you like birds or even if you don't I recommend you visit calba bird pre Center some 30 minutes away from caraan they exhibit wild birds like Falcons owls vultures and explain the bird's hunting and survival strategies it's a bit intimidating they're flying right over your head just above your head they have a fascinating bird show at 400 p.m. and you don't want to miss it don't worry I'm okay it was fine so close I Dro my phone it's very interesting to explore in the inner part of the UAE I found this Heritage side of w Halo for

on the East Coast fera was part of the Emirate of charara until a Revolt broke out in the late 19th century today the population of the Emirate is 256,000 people the port of aera has a strategic position with access to the Indian Ocean and the econom is mostly based on fishing and agriculture other Industries include Mining and stone crushing which have benefited from the recent boom and

the second largest by area welcome to Dubai it's a place that's known for luxurious vacations fancy cars and upscale living once Dubai was a center for fishing pearling and sea trade but the discovery of oil in 1966 transformed the amirit and its way of life today Dubai's economy is no longer reliant on oil but rather on Logistics banking real estate construction tourism and education Dubai is very spread out and the most convenient way to get around is by car alternatively you can use Dubai Metro with a daily ridership of 684 th000 people it has 53 stations and two lines currently and another one is under construction all trains are fully automated Dubai is all about Glitz and glamour so even inside the Metro you have golden class cabins with plush leather seats and panoramic views there's

was a sea of cranes uh half of the Palm jir wasn't open it's it's all open now Yas Island etc etc and and all of those projects are all done imagine what it's going to be like in the next 12 years oh AB absolutely yep it it'll be incredible I've I moved out of the Seattle area just because of the of the crime and homelessness but my son told me so he said you're going to see you're not going to see any graffiti you're not going to see homeless it it it's just clean and it's just delightful it's just it just it makes me sad for for where I come from Eline has date processing companies dairy farms and even organic farms located just outside the city I bet you didn't expect to see an organic farm in the UAE welcome to Emirates biofarm Slava we are the Lar organic farm in the UAE we are

is we we are glad to have this this government we love our government alhamdulillah yeah they are so kind so Justice they always uh encourage us to develop our skills uh by education by support in many different fields the UAE is one of the wealthiest countries in the world with huge oil reserves however the country has been taking significant steps towards economic diversification recently they launched a high-speed train system across the country and very soon you'll be able to travel coast to coast in no time the UAE has been renowned for its zero tax policies for a long time but some recent changes might not be so exciting in 2018 a 5% value added tax was introduced and in 2023 they introduced a 9% corporate tax for certain businesses gradually erode in the country's tax-free status as an international trade Hub and a magnet for the ultra Rich what's the best way to see the country I rented a car like I normally do but keep in mind most likely you'll end up getting a lot of fines because they installed cameras everywhere I received around $800 in fines over the course of two weeks ridiculous I know mostly for using my phone while I was driving but how else was I supposed to use GPS without looking at the phone I had a great time in the UAE and of course Muhammad and abdalah did their best to make me feel welcome well I hope you guys enjoyed this video now let me ask you which Emirate you like the most leave a comment down below and I'll see you in my next [Music] video [Music] [Music] [Music]
