Al Ain UNESCO world heritage sites ( United Arab Emirates )

Jebel Hafeet Beehive Tombs at Jebel Hafeet
The tombs are single-chamber tombs and are made of local unworked or roughly cut stones. These differ from later Umm an-Nar tombs which were made from finely worked blocks that contained the remains of hundreds of people.
Oasis on Hessa bint Mohamed Street
Al Ain Oasis features a system of carefully designed irrigation channels called "falaj," which distribute water from underground wells to the various palm plantations and gardens within the oasis. This traditional irrigation system has been in use for thousands of years and has played a crucial role in supporting agricultural activities in the arid desert environment.
Archaeological park at Hili
The site not only provides the earliest known evidence of an agricultural village in the United Arab Emirates but also contains other Bronze Age and Iron Age villages, burial grounds, forts and agricultural infrastructure.
Bida Bint Saud Masjid Cultural Site on E66
The site includes some graves made of round stones. These graves date back to the Hafit period in the Bronze Age and also to the Iron Age in the 1st millennium BC.
