United Arab Emirates Wahat Al Karama
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.
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.
