Dubai by Joshua Brown May 1, 2023 68 Dubai is the largest and most populous city in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Located on the southeast coast of the Persian Gulf, Dubai is a global city and business hub of Southwest Asia. It’s also a major transport hub for passengers and cargo. The emirate’s Western-style model of business drives its economy with an important focus on tourism, aviation, real estate, financial services, trade and logistics. Dubai was established in 1833 by Sheikh Maktoum bin Butti Al Maktoum as part of his vision to make it “a port that would serve all vessels”. Since then it has become one of the world’s fastest growing cities due to its strategic location along historic trading routes connecting East Africa with Europe via air travel. In recent years Dubai has been known for being home to some iconic architectural marvels such as Burj Khalifa -the tallest building in the world; Palm Jumeirah – an artificial archipelago; Ski Dubai–an indoor ski resort; Miracle Garden–the world’s biggest flower garden; and many more attractions both man made or natural located around this vibrant city where people from all over come together making it truly unique destination not just regionally but globally too! The government runs under democratic principles although there are still restrictions compared to other liberal countries especially regarding freedom speech criticism against UAE leaders or religious issues which could lead you into legal troubles if violated . The currency used here is Dirham which can be exchanged at any money exchange bureaux easily available throughout Dubai itself or internationally through banks & ATMs provided your card supports international transactions.
