Dubai is known to build over-the-top attractions on land, but with Palm Jumeirah, the Emirate is heading out to sea. The construction is built on the Persian Gulf using land reclamation methods, creating artificial islands. The Atlantis Hotel on Palm Jumeirah is said to be the crowning glory of this mega attraction, slowly being eclipsed by the building of the World Islands nearby.

If one landmark stands in the middle of the older and more modern neighbourhoods, it is the Dubai Frame. Sitting smack dab in the middle, this picture frame is 150m high and stands tall on the Dubai skyline. Aside from the viewing deck at the top, there are several galleries within the building that display the local history & heritage of the UAE.

Mall of Emirates

Without a doubt, Dubai is a shopper's paradise. Aside from the Dubai Mall, the Mall of Emirates is one shopping centre you should not miss. The sheer number of luxury & global brands makes it worth the walking time it takes to travel around the building.
