Saadiyat Island
An Island of Inspiration
Saadiyat is a vibrant island destination that offers visitors the
chance to relax in luxury at its high-end resorts, play a spot
of golf, unwind at the pool or the pristine Saadiyat Beach, go
shopping in a premier retail development, and much more. It’s
also the site of three iconic museums – all just 500 metres off the
coast of Abu Dhabi!
Saadiyat Cultural District
Saadiyat Cultural District features three leading museums
designed by Pritzker Prize winning architects: Louvre Abu Dhabi,
Zayed National Museum, and Guggenheim Abu Dhabi. Saadiyat
Cultural District construction progress is being monitored eagerly
by art lovers everywhere; Louvre Abu Dhabi is the first museum
underway and once completed visitors will be enchanted by its
iconic dome’s ‘rain of light’ effect. The district is also home to
Manarat Al Saadiyat, a dedicated arts and culture centre that
regularly hosts exhibitions and is open daily.
The District has already received a lot of attention for its high-
profile projects, which aim to set Saadiyat apart from other
destinations through offering a rich cultural experience for local,
regional and international visitors.
