A group of time-lapse sequences filmed between December 2013 and February 2014 show off parts of Abu Dhabi.

Twenty-eight locations star in the four-minute video, which was shot and edited by Beno Saradzic, who made his first Abu Dhabi time-lapse film in 2011.

The film highlights malls, hotels, university campuses and Yas and Al Maryah island - plus ports, railways and towers.

The video also shows Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, Abu Dhabi Investment Authority and the Midfield Terminal Complex construction site.

Sandeep Nair and PJ van Schalkwyk assisted on the film. The Etihad Rail shots were filmed by Timur Gafurov.

The time-lapse film was commissioned by the Abu Dhabi General Secretariat of the Executive Council.
