Visit
Dubai - In the middle of the desert Dubai is a 21st-century city
against a beautiful prehistoric backdrop. Its spires of steel and
glass rise from the seemingly endless sandscape that covers most of
the United Arab Emirates.
Dubai is one of the Emirates' older settlements. Although now the
money pours in from the UAE's vast reserves of oil it has always
been a traders' city and in the past pearls and the lucrative spices
of the East were the commodities bought and sold here. It is a
venerable history that makes the city a favourite destination for
tourists eager to see the wildness of the desert with modern-day
comforts.
The city is nothing if not contradictory, the skyscrapers of
downtown seeming more typical of Tokyo. Yet, from the top of one,
you could look down on traditional dhows plying the deep water creek
that divides the city, the old souks of Deira, the modern harbour of
Port Rashid or out to where the great desert begins.
The Jumeirah Mosque is among the world's most stunning works of
Islamic architecture while the Burj Al Arab is one of the most
innovative hotel buildings, its name "The Arab Tower" symbolic of
its importance to the city.
Dubai, like everywhere in the Emirates, is surprisingly cosmopolitan
and you'll find international languages, cuisines and merchandise
available almost everywhere. You can go to the horse races or enjoy
a round of golf on a world class course - but it's impossible to
forget that the great desert begins barely a tee shot away.
