Highlights

Old Dubai refers to the historic core of the city, showcasing its traditional heritage and cultural roots. Al Fahidi, this district is one of the oldest residential areas in Dubai, featuring narrow lanes, traditional wind-tower architecture, and charming courtyard houses. The natural saltwater inlet, Dubai Creek, has been a vital element in the city's development. It divides the city into two main sections: Deira and Bur Dubai. The bustling markets of Deira, including the Gold Souk and Spice Souk, are renowned for their vibrant atmosphere, offering a wide array of precious metals, spices, and traditional goods. Old Dubai reflects the city's rich history and cultural heritage, providing visitors with a contrast to the modern developments seen in other parts of the city. It's a must-visit for those seeking to explore the roots of Dubai.

About Dubai

Dubai rises from desert and Gulf shore as a city of soaring towers, vast malls and beaches, with older trading quarters strung along its creek.

The Burj Khalifa, built to be the tallest building in the world, soars above Downtown, where the Dubai Fountain dances on a lake at its feet and the Dubai Mall spreads out beside it. Along the coast, the sail-shaped Burj Al Arab, the palm-shaped island of Palm Jumeirah and the towers of Dubai Marina define a skyline raised within living memory.

Top-ranked sights in Dubai: Burj Al-Arab Jumeirah, Palm Jumeirah, Dubai Marina.
