Dubai Highlights


I had four very pleasant days in Dubai enjoying the great weather, nice food and good shopping. Here are some highlights from my visit.



The Burj Khalifa. Tourist trap, let’s move on…



The Dubai Mall. Despite its massiveness I quite liked the place.



The Gold Souq. Another overrated tourist trap, which I recommend you staying away from.



The Burj Al Arab. That’s the closest a mortal like me will ever get.



Jumeirah Beach.





The Dubai Marina. What an absolutely lovely place to spend the afternoon!



Mall of the Emirates at dusk.



The Dubai Skyline at night.



Scoring the best view in town to watch the fireworks at new year’s.



One last visit to the beach before leaving for the airport.
