Treasure hunt begins in England

Chapter 761 Abu Dhabi
The road to Abu Dhabi is obviously a bit boring, because the road is basically full of deserts and dazzling sunshine. Fortunately, the air conditioner on the bus is powerful enough, and the addition is that two people can chat with each other, so the problem is not very big .

"I feel that the desserts are a little too sweet." After opening a box of desserts bought at Dubai Airport and eating a piece, Jeanne frowned directly. Although she likes sweets very much, the sweetness of the sweets here still exceeds his imagination.

"This can be regarded as a local characteristic." Liang En explained after listening to Joan of Arc. "On the one hand, the entire Arabian Peninsula is hot and deserted, so if the locals want to travel far, they need some food that is durable and has high calories."

"On the other hand, they can't drink alcohol for religious reasons, so sugar is a very good substitute for them if they want to get pleasure from diet."

"So the desserts and snacks here are relatively sweet, and foreigners are generally not used to them, but the overall taste is good if you drink it with black coffee."

Abu Dhabi is the capital of the United Arab Emirates and the capital of the Emirate of Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates.The city is located on the central-western coast of the United Arab Emirates, on a T-shaped island in the Persian Gulf.

This is a very young city. It was not built until the 70s. Before that, the whole city was still a desert. Except for a few date palm trees and camel thorns everywhere, there were only a few clods of soil. houses.

But with the discovery of a large amount of oil, a modern city was quickly built in the desert.Compared with Dubai, the famous city of local tyrants, Abu Dhabi is obviously much lower-key, but this low-key is a kind of low-key luxury.

Many people talk about Dubai when they talk about local tyrants in the Middle East, because Dubai is so famous, and the local tyrant culture has been exaggerated all the year round, so that any incidents linked to local tyrants in the Middle East are often put on Dubai’s head, even if there are many things that have nothing to do with Dubai. It doesn't matter much.

This situation is mainly because although everyone says that the Middle East is full of oil, in fact the distribution of oil is very uneven. For example, Dubai does not have much reserves, and it will be exhausted soon.

After realizing that the oil-extracting economy of their own home was unsustainable, the people of Dubai chose to invest the first pot of gold earned from oil into many infrastructure constructions that were not optimistic at the time.

In addition, they also worked hard to create the image of the world's number one local tyrant, making this city built almost out of thin air a top tourist city and an important shopping center in a very short period of time.

From this point of view, Dubai is still very powerful, because as a tourist city, not only does it not have too many advantages, but it has various disadvantages.

First of all, the climate is too hot. It has been in the high temperature stage for almost half a year. Just standing outdoors may cause serious sunburn. Let alone playing, it is not even suitable for human survival.

Secondly, the opening here is also a country where religion occupies a strong position, so its opening up is under pressure, so the freedom of entertainment is not absolute freedom of entertainment, but still has a high bottom line.

In the end, the United Arab Emirates has only been established for more than 40 years. There is no civilization and heritage that can shock the world in the history of this land. Before the oil economy, it was almost barren, and there are no stories to tell. The cultural heritage is quite weak.

Being able to withstand these three fatal problems and develop to the present level is a good indication of the level of Dubai people, and being able to do this has something to do with their love of tossing.

At least from the perspective of the annual Arabian Tourism Exhibition, Dubai has shown its great ambitions for the future of tourism at the exhibition. More playgrounds, more activities, and more new technologies will continue to equip Dubai and attract the attention of the world.

However, compared to Dubai's toss, Abu Dhabi is much quieter, because it is rich in itself, so it does not need to rely on tourism to stimulate its own economy.

After all, Abu Dhabi has more land, one of which accounts for 70% of the country, and more oil reserves, one of which accounts for 90% of the country, and the other six emirates only share the little bit left.

Therefore, this emirate and this city just did not play a high-end routine, but chose a low-end luxury route. Obviously, it is very difficult for a city that takes this route to become popular, but people don’t care at all. .

As the bus drove into Abu Dhabi, Liang En also realized that Abu Dhabi is indeed a wealthy country.Because the closer to the city, the more various greenings, and even in the end the whole city looks like an ordinary developed city.

But Liang En knew what the green lawns and the pure-brand trees on both sides of the road represented in the desert. For this country where water is more expensive than oil, these green plants that ordinary people are accustomed to are definitely rich. symbol of.

After getting off the bus, they quickly contacted Mr. Varma, and then a Jaguar took them to the seaside of Abu Dhabi. Ten minutes later, a classical Arabian palace-style building appeared in front of their eyes .

Soon, the car came to the gate of the building complex along the road. This gate was more than 40 meters high and looked like a triumphal arch. Liang En, with sharp eyes, saw at first sight that the material used for the triumphal arch was Italian marble.

"Abu Dhabi Palace Hotel, the only eight-star hotel in the world, it seems that the level of this jewelry exhibition is quite high." Watching the car drive into the gate, Liang En muttered softly.

This is a palace-style hotel and the most luxurious hotel in the world. The hotel is a typical Arabian palace-style building. From the main building to the auxiliary building, the width stretches for one kilometer, showing the unique magnificence of Arabian civilization.

The entire hotel has an astonishing 114 domes, all of which are made of mosaics, which are extraordinarily gorgeous and solemn.The largest dome, up to 42 meters in diameter, is plated with silver and decorated with gold at the top.

In addition to the best marble and mosaics, as well as valuable oil painting decorations inside the hotel, even every crystal chandelier comes from Swarovski, shining brightly.

Mr. Varma booked a diamond suite for them, a suite with a view of the sea, both the carpet and the marble decoration are full of strong Arabian style.

The only regret is that this course is the smallest guest room in the entire hotel, only 55 square meters. As for the reason why there are no large rooms, it is because Mr. Varma received the invitation letter late, so the reservation is also late, so that only these houses are left.

"This is much better than I imagined, at least it's more comfortable than eating ashes in the Iraqi desert for more than a month before." Hearing Mr. Varma's apology, Liang En shook his hand indifferently, and then asked one question.

"But is it really appropriate for us to participate in this jewelry exhibition? Our main focus is fashion jewelry for young people, and it always feels wrong to come here."

At least in Liang En's view, the jewelry exhibition held here should be the most luxurious jewelry exhibition. For example, at least gemstones should be as big as soybeans, and a jewelry can use more gold than gold.

So he didn't think his mass-style jewelry was appropriate for the occasion.
