After touring the gallery, we saw two videos about the union of UAE. One was 2D and the other
was a 3D video. Then the guide conducted some activities. Again we started our tour of the
museum. In one of the future galleries, there was a taxidermy falcon where we had a discussion
about national identity. Historically, falcons were used by the Bedouins for hunting. Falconry
was the favourite pastime of Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan, who believed it to be a sport
that taught endurance, strength and patience.
Then we saw different UAE passports and how they changed into one passport. The
guide explained everything in detail and the students enjoyed the visit. They posed a lot of
questions to the guide.
