What is Dubai like? Ever been there?

Answer:
Dubai is a like a modern city that suddenly springs up from the dessert. It is a really pleasant place during the cooler months (October to March). There are some old dirty areas such as around the gold souq and the textile souq but most of Dubai is spanking new. The hotels and malls are huge and beautiful. If I'm not mistaken the population of Dubai has hit 4 million but 90% of them are foreigners who power the whole construction and hospitality service industries of this city. There are Indians, Philippinos, English, Russians, Arabians and many other nations. The arabs in Dubai are a mix of modern stylish crowd and ultra-conservatives. The UAE government seems to have an open-arm policy to all nationalities except Israel. Its islamic laws are not overly strict but take care not to offend anybody especially the locals of Dubai - you can distinguish the men by their elegant long white dress-suit and chequered red and white headscarf fixed with a black band. Apart from hotel spa and shopping malls, fun in Dubai can be found at the beach and in the dessert.

Dubai.....amazing. Omg, breath taking. really really expensive...but its like out of this world. I went last year and dream about it like everyday. Its i think one of the richest countries. I rode the camels,the food was great!! checked out the hotties lol everyone was really friendly. I am of middle eastern decent so i speak arabic fluently which is a major plus if you are in a middle eastern country. I am chaldean (catholic minority) and with all the stuff going on in the middle east, and it being a islamic country...they were the sweetest. If you ever go there, take like 10cameras with you or if you have a digital camera....make sure you have a lot of memory on it!! it is amazing if you go let me know! i can give you some tips and where to go....xoxoxo renee

dubai is a great city... Everything there is like streets of New york or Paris, without the taxes u'd have to pay in Europe or the USA, it has so many nationalities that no individual there feels as if they are not welcome... the weather is very hot during the summer but this is outside.. since everything has air conditioning, very beautiful city i would say.. though one bad thing as all major cities the traffic is tiring to drivers and commuters

Hi!I live here in Dubai ,and I can say that it is a great place to live in ,but it is really expensive here. It is very modernized here unlike what you'd expect,I think. The weather is quite nice now and until around March .Then it starts to get really hot again. If you like shopping there is a lot of that here to do. Great Restaurants with all types of food from all around the world you wouldn't believe it! there is a ski Slope in one of the malls here, there is Bowling if you like, Ice Skating , a Water Park too. If your comming for vacation there is alot to do and to see, I'm sure you will like it alot , If you plan on coming let me know and I'll let you in on the good places to go to !!!!!!!!!
