Absolutley stunning park, the perfect oasis for weary sightseers! The tropical plants were the best bit for me, but we went for a little wander here most days.

We took a day tip out of Dubai and up to the Hajar Mountains for the Hatta Oasis. The guide was really knowledgeable, and the oasis was amazing, so lush, a real change from the desert surroundings.

A beautiful calm oasis before you hit the red light district (or just after, depending on your direction i guess). These are amsterdam's oldest houses, with Het Houten huis the oldest from 1420!

My boyfriend and I took the most amazing trip through the desert, which was so beautiful to the Hatta Oasis, a lush palm-tree laden land in the mountains. Amazing views. The dip in the Hatta pools was the highlight, I could have stayed there FOREVER.

My wife and I took a tour out to this Oasis and it's startling how a lush and green, and populated, place can just spring up in the middle of nowhere! And there's so much history there it's unbelievable! Totally different culture, great people.
