Buraimi

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Buraimi (Arabic: البريمي‎) is an oasis town in the region of Ad Dhahirah in northeastern Oman, on the border of the United Arab Emirates. An adjacent city on the UAE's side of the border is Al Ain. It is located at about 24°15′0″N, 55°45′0″E. For many decades there has been an open border between Buraimi located in Oman and Al Ain (UAE). Effective 16/09/2006 this border has been relocated to an area around Hilli which is around 8 kilometers from the traditional open border. The traditional border near Al Ain city is now closed to all except Gulf Nationals.
