Dubai, a mirage in the desert on the Persian Gulf. Visitors quickly lose their bearings here: gigantic shopping centres (a paradise for shopping lovers), luxury souqs, refreshing swimming pools and the amazing Palm Islands... Even the weekend starts on Wednesday night.
Things to do: In the morning before it is too hot, get lost in the gold, spice and perfume of the souqs. In addition to thrilling activities such as flying by seaplane or helicopter, the Jumeirah district also allows for a foray into the Emirati cultural heritage at the Miraj Islamic Art Centre with its rich collections.
