Dubai of your Dreams
The problem is that in Dubai, you do not have where to walk. Obligatorily start from the Dubai Creek, in order to observe the everyday life of the port, unchanged for decades, but still modernized. Ships larger or smaller still bring to the port goods from around the world.
If you are attentive, you can see porters who carry away goods coming from the over the seas. If you are not seasick, take a boat and row on this portion of salty water that divides the city into two: Deira and Bur Dubai, each with its quantum of oriental art museum, mosques, and malls. To explore these parts of the city in depth, you need a car or a taxi, because in Dubai, everyone is motorized, and sidewalks are quite rare.What you should not miss beside the monuments dedicated to shopping? It is the Bastakya District, to feel the atmosphere of the old Dubai, with narrow streets and small piscatorial houses.
There is here a kind of village museum, called "tourist village,” with art galleries, a cultural center, and restaurants. Sheikh Saeed ‘House is the former residence of the governing family, strategically placed near the water, for the sheik to see from the balcony the activity in port. It dates from the end of the 18th century and it represents an example of local architecture.They are spectacular especially at night, thanks to intelligently located lights, which confer them a sacred air. On the sunset, take one more ride by taxi on Sheik Zayed Road, the commercial center of Dubai and the area with the most skyscrapers. You will feel like in "Star Trek.”
You have to take pictures here. Do not miss the fishing fair either, but it has to be seen early in the morning. Not for shopping (now you will not start cooking with so many restaurants around), but for the atmosphere and feeling of normality that it offers you in the middle of future technology.On the Beach If you want beach, go to Jumeirah. Situated on the coast of the Arabic Gulf, this part of Dubai has beaches with fine sand and palm trees. Here is the modern symbol of the Dubai city: Burj al Arab, the only 7 stars hotel in the world, built in sail shape, where all the rooms are apartments. Prices are as giddy as the panorama that it offers from the top floor, but the luxury is incredible. If you have money, it deserves to spend at least one night here in order to feel like a sheik.
Still in Jumeirah, there are artificial Islands Palm Islands (in number of two), whose story you know from the numerous reports and documentations. The first one is ready and it has even received the first inhabitants. Towards the open sea, about to be finished, there is The World, a complex of private islands that form the world map. In addition, these have already been purchased by private persons or foreign companies.
