ABU DHABI IS ON its way to becoming a global cultural destination, certainly a magnet for visitors to the Middle East, seeking more than to fry themselves on the beaches of Dubai - or shopping. As part of this initiative, The Khalili Family Trust offered a selection of over 500 breathtaking pieces from the Khalili Collection of Islamic Art, the world's largest and most comprehensive Islamic collection. It is the first time these museum-quality artefacts were on show to the public in the Middle East; the selection includes a number of works never previously exhibited, such as an amazingly detailed panoramic watercolour of Mecca, painted in 1843, the earliest visual record of the Holy City.
