For some people it’s exciting, for other its’ boring; but Dubai is definitely a place for shopping and you’ll find there large shopping malls. You can even go skiing in a mall – isn’t it crazy!

Today you can see a characteristic building of the “7 star hotel” i.e., Burj al-Arab hotel in Dubai.

I was in Dubai in June, i.e., in a very hot season.
So I was really happy to realise that air conditioners are almost everywhere; even bus stops have air con! 😉

Souk is a name of an Arab market.
While being in the UAE, don’t forget to visit one of the souk, e.g., the Gold Souk in Dubai.

Dubai is the best known place in the UAE.
People often say that “they go to Dubai” instead of “they go to the United Arab Emirates”, and treat Dubai as a separate country.

Dubai is a city-state, one of the seven emirates.

Now, the Emirates in my “food-memory” is a country of camel’s milk and dates.

Abu Dhabi exists since 1761, but the real development started about 200 years later, and many modern buildings/places are actually “a few years old”.

The Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque is large, but it’s not the largest mosque in the world.

The Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque is very unique (like everything in the Emirates?) and it’s worth visiting, at least to see all impressive/crazy decorations.
