  • Who Better to Guide Visitors to Dubai Through the Layers
    Who better to guide visitors to Dubai through the layers of the city than its residents? While Dubai’s five-star hotels, shopping centres and beaches tend to dominate the pages of most guidebooks, visitors who are limited to these destinations would leave with a mere unsatisfactory glimpse of the city. If you’re looking to get a sense of what it’s like to live in Dubai, to visit the city’s distinctive corners and explore its nooks and crannies, this unconventional guidebook will serve as your perfect companion. In its pages you will find the reflections and recommendations of Emiratis and long-time residents of the city, who will introduce you to its cultural identity, its distinguishing characteristics, and its soul. There is far more to the city than record-breaking skyscrapers and malls. The metropolis, which is home to more than 200 nationalities, has a rich history, celebrated through ongoing heritage preservation programmes, and it has rapidly evolved into a global arts hub, a multicultural culinary destination, an eco-friendly landscape, and a trendsetter in fields as diverse as business, technology and fashion. Through focus groups and interviews with the people who know Dubai best, the Dubai Culture and Arts Authority asked the city’s residents to tell its story, highlight its popular facets and share their diverse memories of life within its friendly borders. What follows is a people’s introduction to Dubai, an invitation from the city’s residents to potential visitors, guiding them towards its cultural enclaves, historical districts, design boutiques, homegrown eateries, parks and much more.

  • The Louvre Abu Dhabi
    INTRODUCTION Dubai is located on the Eastern coast of the Arabian Peninsula, in the south west corner of the Arabian Gulf. It is extremely well known for its warm hospitality and rich cultural heritage, and the Emirati people are welcoming and generous in their approach to visitors. With year-round sunshine, intriguing deserts, beautiful beaches, luxurious hotels and shopping malls, fascinating heritage attractions and a thriving business community, Dubai receives millions of leisure and business visitors each year from around the world. The local currency is the dirham, which is pegged at AED 3.67 to 1 US dollar. Dubai is tolerant and cosmopolitan and all visitors are welcome. However, Islam is a way of life in the city, and therefore tourists should adopt a certain level of cultural and religious sensitivity for the duration of their stay. Dubai Rulers : Since 1833 the reigning Al Maktoum family have ruled Dubai. Under their wise and progressive leadership Dubai has prospered and it is now the business and tourism hub for a region. Dubai History: Some 800 members of the BaniYas tribe, led by the Maktoum Family, settled at the mouth of the creek in 1833. The creek was a natural harbor and Dubai soon became a centre for the fishing, pearling and sea trade. Dubai Economy: The past few decades have witnessed incredible growth throughout all sectors of the Dubai economy. The emirate’s government is constantly working to improve its commercial transparency and introduce dynamic regulations that aid the formation of small and medium enterprises. Dubai’s economy is no longer reliant on oil, but is more diversified, relying heavily on trade, services and finance sectors.

    The First Freehold Property in Mirdif “Exclusive Parkside Living” “A Sense of Elegance” “Experience the relaxing views of green” “The First Freehold Property in Mirdif” “Living Where Beauty and Quality meet” “The privacy is our priority” “A Sense of DUBAI” D UBAI Dubai, a glittering metropolis and the fastest-growing desert city on the planet, has transformed the Arabian sands into one of the most sought-after places in the world; for business, home ownership and tourism alike. Ingenious technology has created desert jewels like the Burj Khalifa; the tallest building in the world, and giant islands in the shape of palms like Palm Jumeirah. Part of the excitement of living in Dubai is the speed at which new things happen. Its determination to excel is seen in its ever-growing skyline as well as its speed in conquering the desert by catering for the most recent ‘chic craze’ – that of living in modern, yet traditionally designed, semi-urban accommodation. This thriving city is not only the dynamic nucleus of the Arabian Gulf but also the ‘gateway between the East and the West’ and as such the most sought after location in the world. dubai MIRDIF LOCATION CONNECTIONS DISTANCE Mirdif is the most idyllic and stylish residential community in Dubai.

  • United Arab Emirates & Oman
    Big Five Presents United Arab Emirates & Oman UAE & Oman offer an unexpected cornucopia of contrasts that when taken together mean an unforgettable vacation experience. From the dazzling gem of sophistication that is Dubai, to the cosmopolitan capital city of Abu Dhabi, to Umm al-Qaiwain’s long sweeps of beautiful beaches, the United Arab Emirates (UAE) has quickly become a star in the realm of luxury destinations. Seven emirates – Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Sharjah, Ajman, Umm al-Qaiwain, Ras al-Khaimah and Fujairah – joined together in 1971 to form a constitutional federation. Although most of the country is desert, it still offers vividly contrasting landscapes, from the Empty Quarter, the largest sand desert in the world, to lush oases, rocky mountains and fertile plains. UAE occupies a large sweep of land along the southeastern tip of the Arabian Peninsula, with Qatar to the west, Saudi Arabia to the south and west, and Oman to the north and east. The capital and the largest city of the federation, Abu Dhabi, is located in the emirate of the same name. Although UAE is known widely for its oil, wealth, shopping and sophistication, the country also has a quieter side that can be experienced in the desert of the Bedouin or the centuries-old neighborhoods, mosques and markets of Dubai. The cultural capital of the country is Sharjah, where visitors gain a glimpse of the past and discover opportunities for authentic interactions with people from fish markets to date souqs. The Sultanate of Oman on the southeast coast of the Arabian Peninsula shares a border with the UAE as well as Saudi Arabia and Yemen to the southwest.
