Qasr al Watan, meaning “palace of the nation” in Arabic, is the official presidential palace of the UAE, situated in Abu Dhabi. Completed in 2017, this splendid palace showcases rich Arabic architecture and designs. Initially utilized for hosting international dignitaries visiting the UAE, a segment of the palace complex was opened to the public in 2019 to highlight the nation’s heritage and beauty.
Qasr al Watan has since gained recognition, earning a place among the top 20 landmarks of art and culture worldwide by “Hotels and Rest.” Additionally, it received a nomination for the World Travel Awards as a key cultural attraction in the Middle East. Constructed predominantly with white marble and limestone, the palace features intricate designs, Arabic architecture, grand domes, and pillared corridors that transport visitors into the realm of Arabian folklore.
While a portion of the palace complex is accessible to the public, the remaining one hundred-acre expanse continues to serve official purposes for the UAE government. A visit to Qasr al Watan offers a captivating exploration of majestic Arabian architecture.
