Introduction

The Dubai city is known for all the superlatives—tallest, highest, largest and fastest. Surrounded by mesmerizing Arabian sands, Dubai is an oasis of luxe glamour and decadence; some would say a modern-day Babylon. This grandeur and ultra-modernity is what draws tourists to choose Dubai holiday trips. Dubai’s main highlights are the Burj Khalifa, the world’s second largest building standing marvelously at 830 meters, Burj al-Arab hotel, the self-appointed world’s only 7 Star Hotel, Palm Jumeirah, a magnificent man-made Island, Dubai Miracle Garden, world’s largest natural flower garden, with its gorgeous castle and clock made of flowers and of course the Dubai Mall and other excellent shopping venues the city offers ranging from the megamalls to quaint markets.
