Abu Dhabi & Baniyas

The UAE consists of seven emirates, Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Sharjah, Ajman, Um Al Quwain, RAK, Al Fujairah and the capital is the city of Abu Dhabi. Abu Dhabi has many suburbs like Al Shahamah and Baniyas. In this essay, I would like to write about the similarities and the differences between Abu Dhabi and Baniyas.

There are many important similarities between Abu Dhabi and Baniyas. The first distinct similarity is that both are in the UAE. Another obvious similarity is that both of them share the same government and take the same orders. Yet another important similarity is that they have the same system of healthcare and education. A final significant similarity is that they are in the emirate of Abu Dhabi which is the capital of the UAE.

Although there are many similarities between Abu Dhabi and Baniyas, also there are several important differences. The first obvious difference is that Abu Dhabi has more high-rise buildings than Baniyas which has a lot of small houses. Another significant difference is that Abu Dhabi is the capital city and has more people than Baniyas. Yet another distinct difference is that in Abu Dhabi there is more noise and traffic than Baniyas which is very quiet. A further important difference is that Abu Dhabi has malls, cinemas and sea which are not available in Baniyas. A final obvious difference is that in Abu Dhabi there are a lot of traffic lights compared to Baniyas, which hasn’t any at all.

Overall, the differences outweigh the similarities. Although there are no malls and palces for entertainment in Baniyas, I prefer living in it because it’s very quiet and there is no noise and traffic jam and this is the most important.
