Dubai Attractions - the charm of the East

Dubai is a very famous tourist city of the UAE, where a lot of people from all countries come to rest every year. The city is very interesting for its variety of landscapes, collected in a relatively small area. For one day spent here you can see and rocky mountains, and big barkhans, flowering parks and wide sandy beaches, villages and elite skyscrapers.

And the sights of Dubai are huge. And the main one is the city itself. It is divided into two parts - the northern, Deira, and southern, Bar-Dubai, which are connected by a tunnel and bridges. Each shore boasts of its beauty. The first impression of this city is the breathtaking skyscrapers that often coexist with ancient buildings made in the tradition of Arab architecture. Needless to say, the sights of Dubai are virtually any part of the city.

Palma Jumeirah Islands

It is considered one of the most ambitious world projects. This is not one island, but a whole complex of them, which constitute a palm tree, including a trunk, leaves (16 pieces) and a crescent moon. These artificial structures are included in the best attractions of Dubai and have a total size of 5x5 kilometers. From the mainland, the island is reported by a bridge, and the tree trunk with a crescent is connected by an underwater tunnel.

Very famous in Dubai, the Atlantis Palm hotel , which is located just at the top of Palm Jumeirah - a colossal luxury hotel, where the number of rooms is 1539.

Not far from the hotel is also the popular water park Aquaventure, the area of which reaches 160 thousand m2. Visitors to Palm Jumeirah can get to the dolphinarium Dolphin Bay and the largest aquarium Lost Chambers.

Burj Khalifa Tower

The opinion of tourists is unequivocal - this tower has casually got into the best sights of Dubai. Today it is the highest building in the world (828 meters). The viewing platform is located on the 162nd floor and provides an opportunity to admire the city at any time of the day. You can watch the sunset and capture the immersion of Dubai in the dark, take a night or day panorama of the city.

The city is also notable for architectural monuments. What to see in Dubai?

Sheikh Said House Museum

It is the best example of Arab architecture. This building differs from the others in the presence of wind towers, their function was to direct the flow of air into the premises. Now they have lost their functional purpose and serve as an architectural monument of the city. In this museum you can trace the history of the dynasty of sheikhs and the city.

Next to it are two more open museums - Heritage Village (Village of Heritage) and the delightful Diving Village (Village of divers).

Dubai Museum

Also included in the sights of Dubai and is located in the fortress of al-Fahidi, the original purpose of which was defense from enemies.

Museum expositions are divided into two parts. The top details the history of the city in particular and the country in general. The lower exposition is devoted to the marine life of Dubai.

Dubai Bay (bay)

The history of the city is directly connected with it. This quiet harbor proved to be very convenient for the development of maritime trade, and therefore it was here that Dubai began. The bay in the daytime is completely unimpressive, but in the evening and at night, when the city begins to shimmer with colorful illumination and the lights of houses, the bay acquires a special picturesqueness.

If you have planned a vacation, Dubai will be the most mysterious, interesting, beautiful and comfortable place for your pastime.
