Emirates National Auto Museum - Museum Review | Condé Nast Traveler
"What’s this place all about? Beyond the city center, on the edge of the desert, the Emirates National Auto Museum houses an impressive collection of vintage cars and intimidating military vehicles. Ye shall know them by their permanent collection: How was it? More than 200 vehicles make up this auto collection, which belongs to Sheikh Hamad bin Hamdan Al Nahyan. With more custom tricked-out whips than a rap music video, the space showcases two things: the cars themselves, and the profound eccentricity of this billionaire sheikh. Convertibles, classic American cars, off-road vehicles, the world's largest truck: Nothing on four wheels is off limits here. What did you make of the crowd? Auto-lovers come from far and wide to see this nearly unrivaled collection. Even if cars aren’t entirely your thing, the building and setup are reason enough for a visit. On the practical tip, how were the facilities? This square complex has a straightforward route, but don’t expect too many areas to sit for a break. Any advice for the time- or attention-challenged? If you’re short on time, beeline to the custom cars, which boast the most outlandish personalities of them all. The military vehicles are also quite the spectacle." - Jenna Scatena
