Hi guys


Mainland, Sicilia is the largest island in the Mediterranean and the southernmost region of Italy. Famous for its blue skies and mild winter climate Sicilia is also home to Mount Etna, Europe's largest active volcano. This fertile paradise was settled by Siculi, Phonecians, Greeks, Carthaginians, Romans, Moors, Normans, Spaniards and Bourbons among others, and the remnants of these astounding cultures cover the entire island, from the temples of Agrigento to the priceless mosaics of Piazza Armerina and the ancient capital of Siracusa. Smaller islands, such as the Aeolian, Aegadean and Pelagian chains as well as Pantelleria, just 90 miles off of the African coast, are also part of Sicilia, offering superb beaches.

Thanks for all friends

Hello
I've only lived in the UAE for 6 odd years, but i believe both Dubai and Abu Dhabi have their strong points:

Dubai:
Has a lot to offer, especially in the tourism sector. And don't be put off by tourist things just because you're going to be a resident, when people go out of weekends where do you think they go? Nightclubs, Malls, Museums, Galleries, Beaches all tourist places, but all wonderful for evenings and weekends. Dubai also has a better public transportation system with the new introduction of buses. There it is only marginally better than Abu Dhabi, the network allows you to travel at a lower cost and go from point to point with greater ease.
As most people have mentioned the Rent is significantly cheaper in Dubai. Most Amenities infact are also cheaper (may vary from different regions). Job wise there is varied opportunity in each sector. Shopping wise, you can get almost anything in Dubai, quality and quantity from around the world and from home. And finally, most of the UAE's largest concerts, gigs, shows and celebrations happen in Dubai (though Abu Dhabi is catching up).

Abu Dhabi:
It is a peaceful haven. There are fewer people than in Dubai, fewer high rise buildings and fewer tourists which all make up for a peaceful city. Deep in the heart of the city, the night time does bring out a lot of people, quite a bit of traffic (nothing like Dubai though) and hubbub, but that all makes for the excitement. Abu Dhabi has a very beautiful seaside called the Corniche with a family beach and bachelors beach (seperate), cafes and a mall right on the edge.
