Dubai is the second largest of the emirates
comprising the United Arab Emirates. It was established in the
late 1950's to serve a tiny coastal settlement. Today, Dubai is
a modern metropolis with a population of over 700,000. It offers
its citizens the finest in modern comforts. It is known
internationally as a premier tourist destination.
Dubai is really two towns separated by Dubai Creek (Khor Dubai),
an inlet of the Gulf. Deira lies to the north and Bur Dubai to
the south. Both districts are packed with traditional
architecture and bustling souqs, but the city center is in Deira.
Glittering new office buildings along Shaikh Zayed Rd in Bur
Dubai form the core of another burgeoning city center.
Twenty nine years ago the southern coast of the lower Gulf was a
barren, under-populated land comprised of several autonomous
states. Today, as the United Arab Emirates, it has become a
dynamic, modern society with the infrastructure of contemporary
twenty-first century life. Geographically, the region which is
now the UAE stretches from the Indian Ocean in the east to the
ends of the Empty Quarter in the west and from the mountains of
the Sultanate of Oman in the south to the temperate waters of
the Arabian Gulf in the north.
The great wealth derived from the UAE's oil and gas production
has given the country one of the highest per capita incomes in
the world. This wealth from oil and gas has been spent over the
past twenty years on construction and development which has
proceeded at an amazing rate. All of the original settlements
have become dynamic urban centers and Dubai has grown into a
large, cosmopolitan center. Rural villages have been
reconstructed; many nationals (natives of the UAE) have new
homes which feature modern conveniences of typical major urban
lifestyles. A network of multi-lane highways link the main
centers. The more remote regions are accessible by all-terrain
vehicles and both the desert and the mountains are popular
destinations for leisure and recreational activities.
Known in the region as 'the city of
merchants', Dubai has welcomed seafarers and traders to
its shores for generations. Today, this tradition of courtesy
and hospitality lives on. Dubai's streets are clean and safe,
and travelers are sure to be charmed by the city's warmth and
friendliness.
Dubai has something for everyone, from holidaymakers seeking a
relaxing break away from the pressures of work, to active
tourists looking for a new, exciting experience. The emirate is
also rapidly emerging as an international conference, exhibition
and leisure travel destination.
Dubai has a seemingly endless variety of unique vacation
opportunities! Some of the highlights are desert safaris, dune
driving; exploring wadis (dry river beds) in four-wheel-drive
vehicles; sand-skiing; moonlit Arabian desert barbecues,
complete with traditional entertainment; camel racing, horse
racing and falconry; cruises in traditional wooden dhow on Dubai
Creek or into the Gulf; exploration of the old city souks
(markets) and creekside dhow quays. Photographic possibilities
include traditional architecture; majestic mosques, magnificent
palaces, brightly dressed children, camel and goat herds,
ancient windtowers, dusty Bedouin villages, lush oases and palm
groves, and dramatic sunsets.
Dubai has facilities for swimming, sailing, fishing,
windsurfing, water-skiing, jet-skiing, scuba-diving and
snorkeling. There is golf on five championship-standard grass
courses. Other sports include squash and tennis; horse back
riding; trekking, paragliding, cycling, ice-skating, shooting,
archery and bowling.
Dubai is a modern city without any of the negative aspects often
associated with city life, such as air pollution, traffic jams,
poverty or crime. It is truly a vacation paradise.
