The United Arab Emirates (UAE) consists of seven Emirates’ and Dubai is the most popular destination of them all. It is situated on the southern shore of the
Persian Gulf on the Arabian Peninsula. Dubai is the second largest Emirate after Abu Dhabi and is usually recognized as the ‘Pearl of the Persian Gulf’. Dubai is one of the most
multicultural cities in the world with the expatriate community covering most of the population, with less than 10% of the total being national Emirates.
Dubai is a landmark for innovation. The city boasts remarkable skyscrapers, such as the world’s tallest tower, the Burj Khalifa, (known as the Burj Dubai during construction), and is
also in the process of developing one of the most technologically advanced buildings in the world – The Pad. This is based on the idea of an iPod; this residential tower is set to be
embedded with the latest gadgets that will have the power to change interior design and window views to almost anything imaginable.
The city of Dubai gains higher returns from its tourism unlike many of the other Emirates, as revenue from oil only accounts for around 6% of Dubai’s gross domestic product. Dubai has
become a world famous city through innovative real estate projects, sports events, conferences and Guinness records.
Although Dubai has been transformed into a man-made hi-tech city, it still has a strong Islamic culture with a stretch of historical buildings by the Creek. Whilst some may view this as
a conflict of old meeting new, it is also considered to be a captivating city that offers both extremes; a traditional past interlinked with modern day.
