UAE currency: A pocketful of history

DH1000: Abu Dhabi Corniche

The UAE’s currency is the dirham, which is divided into 100 fils. Different denominations of the dirham notes carry fine line drawings of notable UAE landmarks.

The dirham was put into circulation in 1973 two years after the UAE was formed, when it replaced both the Bahraini dinar (favoured by Abu Dhabi) and Qatari riyal (favoured by Dubai) which had been used since 1966. For many decades previously, the emirates had used the Gulf rupee, as well the golden pound or the silver Maria Theresa dollar.

DH1000: Abu Dhabi Corniche

Abu Dhabi Corniche holds historic value, and apart from being a major tourist attraction, reflects the changes the emirates has gone through. It is now fenced with elegant Islamic-style lamps that dot its extension.

Abu Dhabi Corniche recently became the first beach in the Arabian Gulf region to achieve Blue Flag certification for beaches and marinas. Blue Flag is only awarded to beaches which meet criteria, including environmental management, information and education, water quality, public safety and services. About 30,000 – 50,000 residents reportedly visit the beach every month.
