Wahat Al Karama, meaning “the oasis of dignity” is a memorial to the people who have gaven their lives for the UAE in armed services. The site also provides good views across a circular reflective pool to Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque (these are included in this post).

Photography Tips

If taking photos of the Mosque, you will need to bring a tripod and shoot long exposure as their is a motorway between the Memorial Centre and Mosque. While you can take photos freely, there are government buildings to the east which you aren't allowed to include in your photos.
It has become a popular spot over time but when you arrive in time, 2 hours before sunset, you can set up right in the center with your tripod and wait. By the time blue hour arrives there is a good chance you are surrounded by photographers but who comes first has the best angle and enjoy this different view of the Grand Mosque ;)
If you plan to go there during summer take a lot of water, you will need it. The concrete platform turns into an oven that radiates heat out at night, I recommend traveling to the UAE any other time than summer, it is just to hot.

Travel Information

The site is easily accessible from the E20 (Al Khaleej Al Arabi Street) with plenty of parking at the car park centre itself.

Words fail me. Simply TOP. The next trip to Asia must be planned with a stop-over.
