Why go?
The most popular of the seven emirate states, Dubai is the entertainment capital of the Middle East. It’s a modern, bustling metropolis backed by sun-blasted desert land. Nestled on the Persian Gulf, there’s no denying it’s a wonder to behold. But there’s much more to this city than its reputation of shimmering glass and skyscrapers. Dubai encapsulates a wealth of heart-thumping activities, cultural dynamism and ancient traditions.
Head for heights
No trip to Dubai would be complete without gazing up at the Burj Khalifa, the world’s tallest building at 828m. Whether you take a trip up to its observation decks or simply enjoy it from a distance, it’s not to be missed (Burj khalifa.ae/en). For the ultimate experience, glimpse it at sunset from one of the nearby restaurants, such as The Meat Co.
