About Dubai

Dubai rijst op uit woestijn en Golfkust: een stad van torenhoge wolkenkrabbers, enorme winkelcentra en stranden, met oudere handelswijken langs de kreek.

De Burj Khalifa, gebouwd om het hoogste gebouw ter wereld te zijn, torent boven Downtown uit, waar de Dubai Fountain op een meer aan zijn voet danst en de Dubai Mall zich ernaast uitstrekt. Langs de kust bepalen de zeilvormige Burj Al Arab, het palmvormige eiland Palm Jumeirah en de torens van Dubai Marina een skyline die binnen mensenheugenis is gebouwd.
