About City

Dubai, city and capital of the emirate of Dubai, one of the wealthiest of the seven emirates that constitute the United Arab Emirates. Dubai is today one of the most cosmopolitan cities in the world. Dubai is home to nearly 200 nationalities and offers a truly memorable experience to all visitors. 

Dubai mixes the modern culture with history, adventure with world-class shopping and entertainment. Whether it is by the banks of the Creek, or at the top of the Burj Khalifa, the world’s tallest building, Dubai lives and breathes a sense of possibility and innovation. And with an unparalleled coastline, beautiful desert and magnificent cityscapes, memories are just waiting to be made here.

Although Dubai is seen as a relatively young destination, it has a fascinating history and a vibrant heritage that offers visitors an intriguing glimpse into Arabian culture. Like much of the Persian Gulf coastline, Dubai has a year-round hot climate. Humidity is high in the summer months and moderate the rest of the year. Tourism has been greatly enhanced by the Dubai-owned airline, Emirates, which operates a large and modern fleet of aircraft.
