A Blend of Desert and Sea
By: Vivek Kuriyal

The name 'Dubai' thrill me too as it thrills others. I witnessed the unique beauty of Dubai City when I was there on a vacation last month. A city for shopping freaks, and ambitious businessmen, it does

 

 

have something for everyone to see, enjoy and relish. I was filled with excitement while viewing the creek from an abra, a small water taxi. The natural sea water inlets through the center of the city are never-seen combination of desert and sea. I found both the sides on the banks of creek boasting of their assets like shopping malls, skyscrapers, hotels and offices.

People from diverse origins have developed Dubai as a cosmopolitan city. I hardly had received such warm hospitality at any other destination. Seeing two business districts Both Deira and Bur Dubai connected by a tunnel and two bridges was a unique experience. They do justify their recognition of commercial paradise. I was mesmerized to see the modern shopping malls, they are out of the world.

Pristine beaches, warm turqouise waters of the Arabian Gulf and high rise hotels are the hallmarks of the Dubai city. And if it's not enough, it is a shopping paradise for tourists. Quality stuff at cool prices is USP of the grand

malls and street shops in the city. Whatever you wish to buy, gold, an electronic gadget, clothes or Persian carpets, the shops store everything for you and that too at a rate you never imagine. Dubai city entertains two millions of shoppers from across the globe during their March shopping festival.

For water enthusiasts, Dubai has emerged out to be a hot destination. Along the creek you can find many water activities like windsurfing, Water skiing and sailing performed the water sports freaks. Ride in a local Dhow and abra along the creek is a wonderful experience. I am sure of not being able to stop myself from being there once again.
