Za’abeel Palace

    The official residence of His Royal Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Rashid Al Maktoum.

    The Palace serves as an exclusive venue to receive ambassadors and Royal dignitaries. A wide open setting for the residence generously allows tourist groups to circulate and enjoy, while forming a fitting landscape buffer for the Royal family. 

     

    The dramatic and imposing formal landscape setting is carefully composed of ornamental knot gardens whose patterns are reflected in the paving, as well as colourful flowering pots, decorative lamps and strutting peacocks.
