Enjoyed skiing at the ski resort in Dubai's Mall of the Emiretes.

I enjoyed skiing at the ski resort in Dubai's Mall of the Emiretes.
The day before I swam in the hotel pool, watching Burj Khalifa.
Dubai is where you can swim and ski at the same time.
Snow quality was also good, not crowded, so I was able to go downhill with speed.
I did not bring anything, but I enjoyed skiing well enough.

It is Mall of the Emirates.  It is not big like the Dubai Mall, but it was crowded with lots of people.

It is the entrance of "SKI DUBAI" on the ground floor of the Mall of the Emirates. I will buy a ticket at the counter at the back of my left hand.

It is a price list.  2 hours: 200 AED, 1 day: 300 AED. ("SLOPE")
This includes skis, shoes, socks (new), stock and ski wear fee. (Snowboarding is also the same.)   Gloves are not included. You can buy it at the next shop.  There are various kinds of gloves, from cloth made of 25 AED to leather.  As a Deposit of KeyCard, 20 AED will be charged.
Paying 255 AED including locker fee 35 AED will give you a KeyCard.  This KeyCard is used at the gate of the locker opening and closing and the lift.
After finishing, put KeyCard in the machine, 20 AED will come back in cash. (KeyCard will not come back.)
First, I borrowed ski shoes and ski wear, and then I had the ski and ski shoes fittings adjusted, but I made it without problems.
Since the height of the locker is about 60 cm, the size of the luggage is enough to enter.

Walking on the biggest carpet in the world in Abu Dhabi

I visited the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque.
A huge mosque of Chalka, a mosque with many topics such as rugged chandelier in the world size of carpet.
I took aim at around 16:30, because the light-up was wonderful.
I was able to fully enjoy both the huge mosque which shines white in marble shining in blue sky and the fantastic mosque which was lighted up.
Also, I was deeply moved by the delicacy of the mosaic paintings such as the paintings of the courtyard flowers, the plants of the corridor pillars and the front room of the chapel.



It is a view from the left side of the mosque.From the road on the side of the parking lot, enter the prefabricated building, take security and clothing checks, and enter the mosque campus. The entrance to the prefab is separated by gender.
In the prefab, women can borrow Abaya for free. In Abaya, the hood is attached so that the hair can be covered and hidden.
When borrowing Abaya, guarantee such as passport, driver's license etc is not necessary.
