How to Explore Top Attractions with Holidays to Dubai
by Amanda Sutcliffe Travel DealsIn recent times, Dubai has become a world-renowned
tourist hotspot in the Middle East region with more than 14 million tourists
arriving in this city every year from different parts of the globe. It is the
capital of the Dubai emirate and largest city in the United Arab Emirates
(UAE). Historical accounts state that in the 18th century, the city was a small
fishing village. Considering the massive developments that have happened over
the past couple of decades in this part of the UAE, tourists often find it hard
to believe this fact. However, you'll definitely have a wonderful time while
holidaying in this Emirati city and visiting the most popular attractions.
Your holidays
to Dubai would give you the chance to explore the Burj Khalifa, which is
among the most prominent attractions in the city. It is currently the tallest
man-made structure on the planet. The construction of this amazing building
began in the year 2004 and was officially launched in 2010 with a grand
ceremony. It has an outdoor observation deck on its 124th floor, located at a
height of 452 metres. Another one is located on the 148th floor at a height of
555 metres, making it the world's highest observation deck. The building has a
total of 163 floors, of which 9 are for the maintenance facilities.
During your cheap
holidays to Dubai, you'll also get to witness the Burj Al Arab,
which is the world's tallest hotel. It has been built on an artificial island
that connects to the mainland with the help of a curved private bridge. The
design of this hotel resembles a ship's sail and a helipad has been provided at
a height of 210 metres near its roof. Although this hotel has been officially
rated as a 5-star hotel, it is popularly known among many as the only 'seven-star
hotel in the world', though the management of this hotel has never used or
encouraged this description.
While enjoying your cheap holidays to Dubai you'll also get the chance to have some
exciting shopping experiences at the Dubai Mall. This is the world's
second-largest mall in terms of total land area. It draws more than 50 million
visitors annually from different corners of the globe and houses over a
thousand shops. This mall is also home to many indoor attractions, such as the
Dubai Aquarium and Underwater Zoo, VR Park Dubai, and Reel Cinemas. Children
can have a wonderful time in the interactive edutainment theme park located in
this mall, called KidZania.
Another popular attraction you can't afford to ignore
is the Palm Jumeirah. It is a group of artificial islands created in the shape
of a palm tree with a crescent at the top. The construction of this archipelago
began in the year 2001 and by 2007, it had already claimed its place as the
largest artificial island in the world. The Palm Jumeirah is connected to the
mainland with the help of a 5.4-kilometre-long monorail line called the Palm
Jumeirah Monorail, which is the Middle East region's first monorail.
