Abu Dhabi, the capital city of the United Arab Emirates

The newly opened Abrahamic Family House has a mosque, a multi-denominational Christian church and a synagogue. Kind of like a shopping mall for believers.

Oops. I guess this more properly belongs in "Politics & Religion". I had forgotten about the "& Religion".

Although I was just thinking of this as an architectural and urban planning innovation. Theologies or beliefs... wasn't at the front of my mind.

...but no place for Buddhists to boogie, or Hindus to hang out?

Well, you described it as... "Kind of like a shopping mall for believers." Are Buddhists and Hindus not "believers"?

Anyway, it's not a shopping mall that I expect to be frequenting.
