As you can see from images via our friends at TechRadar, the new store faces the promenade on the island and sits atop an eyecatching water feature covering steps.
Al Maryah island is located in the north of Abu Dhabi close to the Zayed Port.
The island already features a string of luxury hotels including Rosewood Abu Dhabi and a Four Seasons hotel. It also features The Galleria shopping centre with over 300 retail brands and a cinema.
Apple currently operates four stores in the UAE, namely its Dubai Mall and Mall of the Emirates stores, and the Yas Mall store in Abu Dhabi. Apple doesn’t stay exactly when the new store will open, so it may not be in time for rumored new products coming at the Apple event tipped for March, however it will definitely feature Apple’s current best iPhone, the iPhone 13, as well as its full lineup of Macs, iPads, and more.
