    The Crown Prince of Dubai is a serial thrill chaser, his knack for adventure can be spotted all over his Instagram grid.
    Despite having grown up in the lap of luxury, this Dubai Royal loves to spend an optimum amount of his time in nature.
    When the Crown Prince of Dubai isn’t looking after official cabinet matters or spending time with his family, he can be found seeking new adventures that challenge him as a fitness enthusiast.

    Remember when he climbed the Burj Khalifa in record time? Fazza loves to find an activity that gives him an adrenaline rush.
    In his recent escapade, the Crown Prince made the difficult climb to the Yosemite Half Dome in California. Most hikers take 10 to 12 hours to hike to Half Dome and back, but Sheikh Hamdan and his friends completed the climb in almost 9 hours.
    Through a detailed reel, the Royal Prince captured his journey from the start to the end — taking his 15.9 million followers along for the ride. The video showcases his playful side, as he interacts with animals and takes in the wonders of nature in a free-spirited demeanour.
    Even when he isn’t trekking around the world or jumping off of planes, his choice of activities back home is also always connected with nature and all its species.The father-of-three can often be seen taking his children to the wildlife safaris or spending quality time with his horses — the Crown Prince also happens to be a licensed equestrian and professional horseback rider.

    Alaya

    Spotted at Chef Izu’s latest venue, Alaya in DIFC this month, Sheikh Hamdan gave the restaurant his royal seal of approval.Masterminded by Chef Izu and one of Emirates Man’s former cover stars Evgeny Kuzin, the concept is nothing short of extraordinary, with a combination of Mediterranean and Middle Eastern influences.

After only opening last month, the restaurant has gained quite a bit of traction as the duo has brought a new concept to DIFC.

    La Maison Ani

    On one of his most recent foodie outings, Sheikh Hamdan paid a visit to a brand new concept by Chef Izu Ani and Evgeny Kuzin. Fazza stopped by La Maison Ani at the end of May 2022 just weeks after it officially opened.  The restaurant’s team described it as an “honour” to welcome the Crown Prince, sharing a photo from his visit. “It was a complete honour and privilege to host The Crown Prince @faz3 at La Maison Ani by Chef Izu,” they said. “The first of many visits we hope.”
    SUSHISAMBA

    This restaurant is already a household name in London and Las Vegas. Having arrived in Dubai late last year, SUSHISAMBA has already made its mark on the emirate. So much so, Sheikh Hamdan thought it fit to host one of his most famous friends at the restaurant on his recent visit to Dubai. The emirate’s Crown Prince was seen visiting the hotspot with famous footballer Cristiano Ronaldo. In late January, the pair enjoyed lunch together with some of their entourage. We’re definitely adding this new hotspot to our list of must-trys.

The space is quite intimate being able to seat no more than 30 diners at a time and Fazza gave his stamp of approval in late 2021. While the restaurant may have been a well-kept secret previously, now that Fazza has paid a visit the word about Gohan is well and truly out.
