You can then head off to the world’s renowned ‘gold souk’ (as the gold market). Travelling across the river by traditional means, in an open top riverboat, you reach the gold market, which is a magnificent site! Row upon row of shop windows, glittering with brightly coloured gleaming gold, the site almost blinds you with the beauty. The price of gold in Dubai are extremely low due to low import duty, so I would suggest that you spend what you can here therefore saving yourself a great deal.
Dubai is full of specialised malls with everything from designer boutiques to traditional Arabian gifts. Whatever you are interested in, Dubai is most sure to have it, whether it is in a shopping mall or market place. Dubai is also on the cutting edge of electronics, with many items being a great deal cheaper than other places.

Having a meal in the city is a difficult decision, with a wide variety of styles of food to match your taste and also shopkeepers bellowing out on the street, in their dodgy English, for you to come and have food in their restaurants ‘you like food? Come, I give you tasty food!’
However, Dubai isn’t all shopping and food, you can head of to the beaches, only 20 minutes away from the city and enjoy a wide variety of water sports which includes Para-sailing and jet-skiing or if you want, just laze about and lap up the great sunshine.
The architecture of the buildings in Dubai, are just amazing to look at, and if you like that sort of thing, you should venture out to the outer parts of the city, where you will find beautiful stately homes and beautiful mosques to see. The Arabian culture and traditions that you can see
Another feature of Dubai is the world famous horse racing, which you can see in Sharjah outside the main city, with the world’s most expensive races and horses on show, it’s a must for all horse racing fans. The safaris outside the cities are also very good, with many wild animals to be seen outside of the city in the deserts surrounding Dubai.
You cant help but wonder why Dubai isn’t totally packed out with tourists. With so much to offer its hard to see why its not one of the hottest holiday destinations around, but with so much going for it, I think that in a few years, it will be just that. There’s just too much to do in the time that you spend there.
Dubai is also home to some of the world’s most renowned hotels for luxury and architecture. The Burj al Arab raises spectacularly out of the blue waters of the Arabian Gulf on a man made island, and is designed in the shape of a sail. It is well worth going to see, regarded as one of the worlds top hotels, it cost about £20 just to walk in! It dominates the coastline of Dubai along with the Jumeira beach hotel, shaped like a breaking wave. Dubai’s shore looks like paradise with these inspirational buildings, golden sand and blue sea.

Dubai was possibly the most fantastic place I have ever visited in my life, the amazing range of things to do will keep, even the most fussy of people, interested and pleased. The sheer beauty of the modern city and surrounding areas are unbelievable, you really have to see it to believe it. It is an ideal holiday for family’s and couples, with something to cater for everyone.
I would suggest Dubai to anyone who was going on a holiday it has everything
