Set within the Garden City of Al Ain in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi, the refurbishment plans for this historic oasis seek to strengthen the cultural importance of the site, while at the same time sensitively integrating the Oasis with the surrounding parts of the City. This process entailed gaining an understanding of the physical and social context of the Oasis, the function of the aflaj, as well as the economic and symbolic importance of the palm tree.
