Dreaming DUBAI
GlobalSpa|September 2020
IT’S THE CITY OF GOLD, LIVING UP TO ITS NAME. NOT ONLY LITERALLY, BUT WITH ITS ABUNDANCE OF RENOWNED STRUCTURES, ENDLESSLY EVOLVING MALLS, AND HUNDREDS OF OTHER UNIQUE ACTIVITIES ONE GETS TO CHOOSE FROM. A CITY PERFECT TO OPEN DOORS FOR YOUR WANDERLUST, DUBAI IS THE PERFECT PLACE TO HEAD TO POST THE SKIES OPENING UP.

Dreaming DUBAI

The perils of lockdown are finally beginning to fade out. As countries all across the world are getting ready to ini-tiate travel as per set rules and regulations, I am day dreaming about my favorite city and can’t wait to pack my bags and head to Dubai as soon as it is possible. It has always been my go-to city and I never failed to visit at least 4 to 5 times a year.

Dubai tops many a people’s top list including mine for several reasons:

SHOPPER’S PARADISE

There’s new Dubai, and then there’s Old Dubai. Explore the finest of the latter at Grand Soul Deira - one of the oldest and most fascinating traditional markets in the emirate. Whether you are just browsing or genuinely on the hunt for something pure, walk through the glittering Gold Souk to find designs in a variety of carats. You never need to worry about authenticity since the market is carefully regulated by the Dubai government. In addition to gold, look out for diamond-encrusted ornaments, strings of pearls, platinum, and silver. There is something for everyone.

The most popular malls in Dubai are Dubai Mall and the Mall of Emirates and any tourist visiting Dubai surely goes to shop at these 2 big malls. Though these malls are always on my list, I also like to shop at Festival City and City Center Merdiff.

A visit to the Mall of the Emirates is a must on any trip to Dubai. Home to a ski slope, cinema complex and 560 shops and boutiques, it offers fun attractions such as Magic Planet, VOX Cinemas and Ski Dubai. Besides the plethora of shopping options right from the top brands to the mid-level and local brands, Mall of Emirates has the best of eating places to relax and enjoy a leisurely meal as well.
