And if you’ve got a soft spot for luxury fashion and beauty, Elevnish and Odela & Co and Feathers will take you on a journey into the heart of Emirati traditions.

The Valley is a sustainable sanctuary where Salt sprinkles culinary magic and tempts your taste buds with the juiciest burgers and ice creams in the emirates.

Next up is the Carnival, the Disneyland of Liwa Village. This place is like an amusement park. Get ready for some serious fun with games like Pyramid Smash, Rebound, Blockbuster, Lobster Pot, Spin a Wheel, and Hook a Bag. With a 5D Cinema, Playneo, and two electrifying Racing Simulators, it’s a thrill-seeker’s paradise.

The Pavilion is like a cauldron of creativity and innovation, brewing up the latest trends in technology and entertainment. If you’re a gaming buff, hold onto your controllers because the Digital Station by PUBG is your ultimate digital playground.
