Description
Where luxury living bridges the gap between antiquity and modernity, Dubai is home to world-class shopping, multicultural dynamism, and ambitious urban projects. Visiting Dubai is like taking a trip to the future, but residents of the city know the importance of preserving its cultural history. This is an innovative city, boasting the world's tallest building, an island shaped like a palm tree, a huge indoor ski paradise, the world's fastest roller coaster, and many more grand projects in the pipeline. Dubai is obsessed with two things above all else: Eating and shopping. A top retail haunt for high profile shoppers, Dubai also hosts two huge annual shopping events, and the sheer number of authentic global food is staggering. You have to see Dubai to believe it.
