The Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Deputy Supreme Commander of the UAE Armed Forces began his tour at Green Mubazzarah, a natural landmark located at the foot of Jebel Hafeet, offering natural hot springs. Sheikh Mohamed then inspected a number of housing projects for Emiratis.

The Emirati housing development project at Jebel Hafeet will include 3,000 residential villas, covering an area of more than 4.5 million square metres with a wide range of amenities like school, health and recreational facilities and eight mosques located at the Western base of Jebel Hafeet.

The centre has five interactive galleries - the Sheikh Zayed Tribute Hall, Abu Dhabi Desert Over Time, Abu Dhabi's Living World, People of the Desert, and Looking to the Future.
