Dubai

About

Among the seven Emirates of the UAE, DUBAI struts it stuff much more than any other western city does. It’s a City Sheikhdom that’s basking for attention. On the surface Dubai is glitzy, glamorous, over-the-top and a little overexposed and materialistic beyond anyone’s wildest dreams. Dubai virtually invented the ‘shopping festival’ (Dubai Shopping Festival or DSF) which is today followed by other international cities. With myriad shopping malls, flamboyant hotels, a dizzying array of dining options and hip clubs and bars, it’s all just too easy to whip out the plastic and go on a swiping binge, here. Probably why, visitors and potential residents are flocking to this Middle East metropolis in increasing numbers with the promise that Dubai is like no other city on earth.
