Descrying DUBAI

Well as this was my second trip to Dubai I must say its practically impossible to finish the place in 6 days!

From golden sands to the shiny buildings Dubai is a vast landscape with many many locations to visit...here are the things I did in order of days inclusive of both my trips):

JAN 25 - 31 (with my mum, dad and sister)

25th - waited in the hotel for my father to arrive and then had dinner in a hawaiian shack.

26th - Went to the Dubai Mall via the Dubai Metro, the amazing Aquarium inside the mall on the land of a desert was a must to see, the saw the amazing water show outside the mall.

27th - Spent the entire day at the Desert with the Safari first, entertainment by belly dancers and the Egyptian dancers and camel rides and go-carting.

28th- Mall of the Emirates was the main shopping destination followed by a trip to the Dubai Ski inside the mall, then later we went to Global Village ( this amazing exhibit that is on from december to march with the theme showing countries of the world and their goods)



29th- This day we went with Big Bus Tours and saw the Creek Cruise, Dubai Museum, Lost Chambers Atlantis, Ziggurat Mall and Garden which was paradise




30th - Meena bazaar: the hub of Pakistani clothes and first copy luxury brands, Burj Khalifa was later in the evening

31st - we took an evening flight back...

DEC 23-27 (with my mum and aunt)

23 -  Landed Dubai in the morning and took off to Jumeirah beach (public and the garden beach) returned back to change and left for Global Village (yes, it was so cool the first time, had to do it again!)



24 - The next day we went to Dubai mall for the entire day, saw the afternoon view of Dubai from the  Burj Kalifa and later took a quick spin into the Aquarium. I shopped till I could no more hold bags! And then we went to see the Waterfront.


25 - Apres breakfast we headed to Meena Bazaar to pick some gifts for relatives and to check out the amazing pakistani clothes (and buy first copy luxury brand goods) then we went by metro to the Mall Of The Emirates

  1. Musandam oman is about 160 km from Dubai, about drive of 1 hour and 45 minutes approximately. This is an eye-catching peninsula situated on the northern border of the Sultanate of Oman. The high mountains in this territory rise above two thousand meters of sea level. The mountains are spread out in a natural and symmetrical way which makes this area very charming and mystical.
