Dubai, UAE - a modern cosmopolitan City

Getting There - by flight Attractions - Burj Khalifa, Burj Al Arab, Dubai Mall, Dubai Marina, Dubai Creeks, Desert Tours, Souks Hotels - Shangrila Dubai, Hilton Dubai and various Food & Restaurants - numerous Shopping - endless shopping We decided to do a few days stopover in Dubai whilst travelling on Emirates flight from Europe back to Singapore. This was our first trip to Dubai. Dubai is a very modern cosmopolitan city which also has its own history. When we visited Burj Khalifa during sunset (best viewing time), the sunset view was really beautiful and you can see the whole of Dubai from the top tower (first photo was taken from top of Burj Khalifa). Unfortunately, due to a lot of crowds there that day, we end up struck on the top floors for two hours before we could take the lifts down to the ground floor (there was a very long queue for the express lifts) and we actually end up changing a few lifts and saw a few private Lounge or restaurant whilst following the staff down. We also saw the fountain night light show from Burj Khalifa which was a interesting experience. Dubai also has a lot of very big malls which include indoor ice rink to underwater aquarium and a Apple Store (which has a open balcony for people to take photos of the surrounding). For hotels, we recommend staying at the Shangrila which has a open balcony on the top floor accessible to guests (you can take a very nice pic of Burj Khalifa tower from this balcony and if you are lucky enough, you might even be able to take a photo of Dubai covered in fog in early morning). #unforgettableexperiences #scenicspotguide #dubai #burjkhalifa #dubaimall #travelinspiration #urbanexplorer
