A few months ago, i had a surprise holiday to Dubai and trust me it was the boom.!
Since there are countless special things in Dubai, im only going to emphasize more on the WONDERS OF DUBAI that i visited over my holidays.
Number 1 on my list is the Burj Khalifa.
Its something that you wont have experienced except when taking off or landing in an aircraft. But you were standing on the floor with everything around you mystically dwarfed. It is a scintillating experience. But the photo sessions atop the Burj is highly expensive and is not worth. You can do with your mobile or camera with a held always nearby. In scorching sun also the Burj was full to the beam. Its amazing as to how man could think and then execute this marvelous piece of architecture.
Number 2 on my list is the Palm Islands.
The reason we came to Dubai was to stay on the Palm Island! The water on the beaches here is calm, albeit rocky, but good for canoeing or paddle boarding. It is a cool place to admire the engineering of the island, and as you drive around, you can see and appreciate the shapes of the palm fronds. Most of the hotels on this island are luxury, such as Jumeirah or One & Only hotels, so there are also many luxury restaurants. You can also go to Aquaventure, which is at the top of the palm. Across the road from our hotel on the walking path, there were bikes available for the public to hire to ride around the palm. It was too hot when we went in July, but could be a fun idea in the slightly cooler months. Everyone has to visit the Palm at least once In my opinion. Nothing in the world can be compared to the feeling of driving around the palm islands. Most areas are private. But the Palm Atlantis road is accessible and open for tourists. Must visit. Also, you can go around by a yacht and the views are breath taking at night.
Number 3 on my list is the Dubai Mall.
It is the biggest mall in the world. A grand and majestic
mall showcasing every thing under the sun for sell. It has high level apparel
and shoe shops. It boasts off nicest perfume outlets and so is gold. The
fashion wing boasts of all top names of Italian brands. It has great cafeterias
and coffee hops. It also has the great aquarium and grand musical fountain. One
day is not sufficient to ride across all things that needs are-look.
Number 4 on my list is the Ski-Dubai.
Where else in the world can you be in the desert and then ski within the same day? Only Dubai! Ski Dubai is a unique experience because they have literally figured it down to a science to where you can pay and be suited up with your ski’s and gear and be on the slopes within 20 minutes. If you don’t want to ski, they also have a snow park, penguin experience, and other options available as well. For skiing, advanced booking is not required (but for Penguin’s, yes). Expect to spend about 2 hours here.
These are the places that i have personally visited when i was in Dubai and trust me it was worth every penny. Life is too short to stay at home and watch TV. Go out, explore and see the world. Dubai is really a place that was in my bucket list for a very long time and i have already crossed it out of the list.
