Great Sightseeing
in Dubai
By
James Bukovsky
Dubai
is a remarkable holiday destination and offers a variety of sightseeing
opportunities. Dubai has Islamic traditions however Dubai also
offer a way of life that is similar to other cosmopolitan cities
around the
world.
A
great place to start of your Dubai sightseeing rounds is a visit
to the famous Jumeirah Mosque. This Dubai Mosque is widely regarded
as the premier example of modern Islamic architecture and the
way it has integrated into society.
The
Jumeirah Mosque is very recognizable due to its two remarkable
minarets. The Jumeirah Mosque also has an exquisite dome which
is extensively photographed by the many tourists that visit the
famous Dubai Mosque each year.
The
Sheikh Saeed's House is another must on any Dubai sightseeing
schedule. The Sheikh Saeed's House is located near the shoreline
of Dubai.
This
Dubai landmark was constructed so that the Sheikh who rules this
Emirate at the time would be able to have a better view of all
shipping and trading that occurred in the area.
Sheikh
Saeed's House is a remarkable building which offers one of the
finest examples of local Dubai architecture.
Bastakiya
is one of the oldest quarters of Dubai. It is extremely interesting
for tourists as Bastakiya offers tourists to experience and witness
how Dubai was in past times. No modern shopping malls and large
office buildings can be found in this region of Dubai which gives
this section of Dubai a sense of authenticity.
The
Al Fahidi Fort is located within the Bastakiya area of Dubai and
this fort offers the largest selection of typical Dubai courtyard
homes that have windtowers.
These
special Dubai windtowers acted as a type of Air-Conditioning as
the cold breeze went into the wind towers and the breeze was directed
into the rooms of these Dubai houses.
The
Dubai Museum is a great place to visit and should really be visited
by every tourists visiting Dubai. The Dubai Museum is one of Dubai's
tallest buildings and is in fact located within the Al Fahidi
Fort.
The
Dubai Museum was originally built as a palace for the local rulers
at the end of the 18th century. The beautifully designed building
has since served many purposes as it has also serves as a jail
and an army base.
Visitors
can witness scenes from a variety of historic events as well as
impressions of everyday life in Dubai which includes the Dubai
Mosques, pearl diving and the variety of architectural styles
which one can encounter in Dubai.

Top Reasons To Visit The Emirate Of Dubai
By Laura Bentley
Dubai has so much to offer, as a holiday destination and place
to live. Here are a few things that make the city of Dubai so
dynamic and exciting, minus the traffic of course!
1. Shopping paradise. Dubai has long had a reputation as a leading
shopping destination in the Middle East, and it just keeps getting
better. More and more shopping malls are appearing, and international
flagship stores are moving in at every one. At the moment, Mall
of the Emirates is the leading shopping destination, given the
close location to new Dubai, the heart of freehold property, and
close to the beach. The Dubai Mall, part of the Burj Downtown
development, is supposed to be the world's largest shopping mall,
and we can expect this to be finished in a few months.
2. The finest hotels. Dubai prides itself on offering the ultimate
visit to tourists, and the top hotels here don't disappoint! All
along the beachfront, the world's finest hotels and resorts are
constantly full of visitors and residents, offering activities,
restaurants bars and so much more. There are so many hotels in
Dubai, and the standard is high for the majority, so anyone coming
here on holiday has a lot to look forward to.
3. Property and construction that's unrivalled. Dubai has long
been regarded as a city that grows so quickly, a few months make
a difference. This is certainly the case for all new Dubai property
developments and other construction projects, which are being
built in record pace. Skyscrapers just seem to appear out of nowhere,
and the Burj Dubai, the world's tallest building, gets a new floor
every couple of days. Dubai has always been ambitious with its
construction, but the vast variety of freehold projects that feature
unique living and massive engineering feats like the Palm Jumeirah
are in a completely different league.
4. So much more to do. There are desert safaris, lots of sporting
facilities, particularly golf, souks, and many, many places to
see. Residents and visitors enjoy the city because it never really
stops. There is always something new, and the landscape of Dubai
is constantly changing, thanks to the Dubai freehold property
market. Now it is possible to own a home in Dubai.
