This must be the fifth time I’ve visited the Heritage Village and each time is interesting. Be sure to view the pictures in the museum, such a change in the area over a short span of time...

Our tour guide brought us here instead of the much more interesting Emirates Palace which I really wanted to see. No fee or security at entrance. Didn't bother with any museums because all of them were underwhelming and boring. Got to take a picture with and touch a real camel though! Amazing view of the Abu Dhabi Corniche as well. Lots of lovely gardens and palm trees to sit under to enjoy the shade. If you're at the Marina Mall you might as well check it out, but otherwise it's not worth your time.

The entrance is free, but be aware they close at 16:00 within the week so plan your visit! Inside is quite beautiful and they show a lot of the old/local culture from Abu Dhabi and the Emirates in general. It is not easily reachable by public transport but I’d recommend going by taxi since it is not very expensive if you are in the Marina Mall or somewhere close-by.
