Dubai

Dubai is no longer a little village lining the water's edge. It is a glittering, energetic metropolis where old-style souks nestle amongst a spectacular skyline.

Flamboyant and futuristic, Dubai is home to astonishing developments like the Burj Khalifa (the world's tallest building) and Palm Jumeirah (the world's largest artificial island). Although extravagance is the norm, you can still get a taste of traditional Arabia when perusing the souks, enjoying the authentic taste of Emirati cuisine and hopping aboard a traditional ferry boat in the waterways of Dubai Creek.
