Overview
The city of Dubai is a thrilling mixture of rich traditions and ambitious visions for the future, all wrapped up in the starkly evocative splendour of the desert. Dubai was once a little fishing community in the Arabian Gulf, but it has since grown into one of the most multicultural and diverse cities in the world. The city, which is located in one of the seven emirates that together make up the United Arab Emirates, is home to more than 200 different nationalities and provides tourists with an experience they will never forget. Whether one is standing on the banks of the Creek or at the very top of the Burj Khalifa, the tallest skyscraper in the world, the city of Dubai exudes an air of promise and invention everywhere one goes. And with a coastline that is second to none, a desert that is breathtaking, and great cityscapes, this place is just ripe for the making of memories.
