The new natural history museum on Saadiyat: the T-rex Stan and a Martian meteorite — 59 AED.
from65 AED
The Natural History Museum Abu Dhabi is a new museum on Saadiyat Island telling Earth's story from the birth of the solar system to Arabia's modern ecosystems. World-class highlights: the T-rex skeleton known as Stan — one of the most complete ever found — the Murchison meteorite, older than the planet itself, and fossils found nowhere else in the region. ✨ What to expect
The route works as a journey through time: halls on space and Earth's formation, the age of dinosaurs, the ice ages, and a final section on the Arabian Peninsula's nature with finds from the UAE. Open-date ticket: come any operating day, no slot needed. Allow 1.5–2 hours.
