A mega attraction, Hili Fun City in Abu Dhabi used to be the only one of its kind in the entire Gulf region at the time of its opening in 1985, creating quite a stir within its neighbouring country visitors. Today, it continues on its winning streak of being a major theme park with a throng of attractions for the kids with value for money in an excellent location with plenty of relaxation offered for the adults as well.
The Hili Fun City in Abu Dhabi is located in the ‘Garden City’ of Al ain, an oasis of greenery found about 160 kms east to the capital of UAE, Abu Dhabi. This major family attraction that underwent recent renovation, now holds as many as 31 attractions which are carefully structured to suit different age groups from young kids to adventurous teenagers. With looping roller coasters to ‘sky flyers’ to various rides such as the Circus Train, Twister Mountain as well as Crazy Clown and Jumping Star, the park also contains an amphitheatre, play areas and picnic sites. The park’s maintenance is in excellent hands and nature’s own creations are well protected with several palm trees, bushes and grass being planted to maintain a green environment while pollution is avoided with proper use of waste disposal, etc.
Most people consider this mega theme park a place with true value for money as there is usually an all inclusive charge for the use of all attractions. The atmosphere is simply amazing and one that encourages family bonding, with picnic areas, barbeque sites and excellent eateries together with entertainment at the amphitheatre. Not surprisingly the venue is a strong item in the tourism industry of the country while its visitors frequently gush in its praise with mention of their repeated visits. The children are the best witnesses as they have the time of their lives with such varied segments of entertainment providing unforgettable thrills all within one day.
One can get quite confused when picking a place to stay over as there is a range of Abu Dhabi hotels to choose from. At Qasr Al Sarab Desert Resort by Anantara, one can admire the mysterious view of the vast dessert from the comfort of some lavish indoor luxuries, either over an intimate dinner at the terrace or from the depth of the king size bed with chic draperies that have a hint of Arabian culture woven into its fine linen. It is one name that keeps coming up as most desired and recommended by tourists from among the numerous luxury hotels Abu Dhabi has to offer.
