Marvel at Captivating Architecture & Inspiring Location 

Louvre Abu Dhabi Universal Museum is truly an impressive spectacle on water. Designed by the award-winning French architect Jean Nouvel, it encompasses a series of stunning white structures that reflect an Arabian city. In fact, it forms one of the main highlights of the thriving Saadiyat Cultural District, which also hosts museums including the Zayed National Museum and the Guggenheim Museum.

Feel the Impressive Rain of Light Effect 

The museum’s main highlight is its intricate and multi-layered geometric lace dome, enhanced by thousands of star-like cladding patterns. This is inspired by the region’s ancient construction techniques, such as the traditional Falaj water system and interweaved palm leaves. The resulting structure provides elegant perforations, creating a stunning contrast of sunlight and shade. This makes for some stunning Instagram shots.
