The old watchtower

Away from the hustle and bustle of downtown Abu Dhabi lies the magnificent 18th-century Al Hosn Palace “The White Fort”. It's the most important landmark in Abu Dhabi both historically and architecturally and an oasis of peace and tranquility. With its eye-catching architecture, striking watchtowers, palmed-lined interior courtyards and blue skies it's also a photographer’s paradise!

This is gorgeous! I really appreciate the size of the photos you display as well -- it adds another dimension to the grandness of your subjects.
