Description
As Dubai charges into the future, it also keeps a watchful eye on its Arabian legacy. While the city expands beyond its working Creek, burgeoning financial districts, waterfront high-rises and tax-free malls are appearing along the serene Gulf coast. Themed hotels like the underwater Hydropolis celebrate cherished notions of local hospitality, while new galleries and theaters tap into a newfound thirst for cultural stimulation. This concise, comprehensive guide covers every facet, from the iconic The World islands to Dubai's quirikier districts.
