Dubai: A City Full of Attractions


Dubai is a city rich in attractions, from beaches, to the desert, from Burj al Arab to true ski slopes, artificial of course, but no less fascinating than natural ones.
Dubai is undoubtedly one of the tourist places to see at least once in your life, gorgeous and super modern, it could be defined as an architectural marvel that develops in height. Dubai is a city to visit all year round to enjoy the sun on golden beaches and take a cocktail in a breathtaking location.

Attractions in Dubai

Here are the 5 to do and see during a stay in Dubai.

1. Burj Khalifa

As many will know, this is the tallest building in the world, 828 m high and 124 stores high. An almost obligatory stop, not considering the entry costs, where you can enjoy an unparalleled view of the entire city. Very impressive in the evening hours when Dubai is filled with millions of lights. Of the breathtaking view that is worth half the trip to Dubai.

2. Burj al Arab

Another building of the city known as "La Vela”. This is the famous 7-star hotel, you can imagine the almost excessive splendor of the place, but that characterizes the whole city of Dubai. Those who have the opportunity to stay here are really lucky, others can still enjoy a cocktail at the Sky view. A bar with a panoramic view located on the 27th floor.

3. Dubai Marina

Born from a desert, the Dubai Marina is a very impressive architectural work. It is one of the most recently built neighborhoods that overlooks several canals with shops and all kinds of entertainment. From here it is possible to do a crociera on the bay around Palm Island. Perfect place for a romantic walk.

4. Desert Safari

Dubai is a multi-faceted city, on the one hand the modern city on the other the "old Dubai" and then just move a few kilometers to find yourself among stretches of sand in the middle of the desert. In the city, but also in the hotels, you can book a guided tour in the desert by jeep or quad. An experience that I recommend to everyone to experience the thrill of driving on the dunes. The various packages can be personalized with the addition of camel rides and theme dinners where you can enjoy the sunset and admire the stars.

5. Jumeirah Mosque

It is located in the oldest part of Dubai, built in the typical Fatimid style, it is a beautiful example of Islamic architecture. Inside there are guided tours every day except Friday. Inside it is advisable to wear clothing appropriate to the place.
Dubai is a tourist spot that is never going to disappoint you, regardless of the reason you are visiting this city. It is equally for the adults as it is for the kids. So, if you are looking to go on a wonderful vacations, pack your bags for this city full of surprises.
Enjoy the chance to enjoy a wonderful day in Dubai with Arabian Tour Packages.
