City plan of Abu Dhabi, capital of the United Arab Emirates, published within a decade of the formation of the UAE in 1971. Hotels, petrol stations, and important civic buildings are marked for the benefit of tourists. Many areas of the city which are now densely inhabited with skyscrapers and luxury high-rises are shown on the map as undeveloped, a testament to the city's enormous expansion over the last four decades. Inset map of the whole of the island of Abu Dhabi.
