The Dubai Fountain

The most modern and progressive emirate in the UAE, Dubai, The Sunshine City (yup, that’s what I like to call it) has developed at an unbelievable pace, especially in the tourism and trade sectors.

I have lived in Dubai for nine years now and every day is a revelation. It is definitely the dream destination of every 21st-century traveler. People are surprisingly polite, and even in this city of superlatives, you can see strong connection to the heritage.

Whether you are looking at the city from the world’s tallest tower, The Burj Khalifa or haggling in traditional souks in Deira or Bur Dubai, the excitement of being here cannot be overlooked. Its strong heritage rooted in its Bedouin past is the foundation of its ultra-modern infrastructure. Like visitors attracted by Dubai world class shopping and lifestyle, business centers lure multinational giants into taking advantage of its tax-free policy to explore its commercial opportunities.
