Falcon hospital in Abu Dhabi

Abu Dhabi is not only snow-white mosques, luxurious hotels, masterpieces of art and luxurious beaches.

Another cultural attraction in Abu Dhabi is falconry. And if you want to know more about it - welcome to Abu Dhabi Falcon Hospital.

We doubt that any other people may love falcons as the Arabs. One bird can cost from 10 thousand dollars to 100 thousand and even more. In addition, you need to hire a special worker - a falconer. He will monitor the bird, its diet and lifestyle, and if something goes wrong, he will bring it to this hospital.

In the rehabilitation center for hunting falcons, you can get acquainted with the birds and those who care for them, learn how they are prepared for hunting and how the hunting process itself goes. In addition, you will be taken to all the rooms and shown some medical manipulations.

The tour of the hospital lasts two hours and you are accompanied by the staff of the center all the time. You can take pictures with the birds and feed them.

Guests are provided with special protective clothing because falcons can cause injury.

The tour must be booked in advance on the hospital website. It costs about $50 for a standard tour.
