Dubai

Dubai is a city and emirate in the United Arab Emirates known for luxury shopping, ultramodern architecture and a lively nightlife scene.

Burj Khalifa, an 830m-tall tower, dominates the skyscraper-filled skyline. At its foot lies Dubai Fountain, with jets and lights choreographed to music. On artificial islands just offshore is Atlantis, The Palm, a resort with water and marine-animal parks.

Mall of Emirates

Mall of Emirates – dull, the same shops as other places in the world with nothing unique other than Ski Dubai as an attraction. A taxi rank that zig-zagged and seemed endless and waiting queue of just over 20 minutes, there is no quick shopping here. Seems like a complicated experience to me, what should […]

Dubai – Uninspired and unimpressed

Dubai – Uninspired and unimpressed, there is no culture here. No culture. No alcohol is allowed other than at hotels. Good family destination. Great climate. Unwelcome to gays.

Burj Khalifa, an 830m-tall tower, dominates the skyscraper-filled skyline. […]
