Dubai is situated along a creek that forms a natural harbor, and for centuries, the people of Dubai earned their livelihood through pearl diving or fishing. Now the city is a bustling center of trade and industry. Enjoy the Bastakiya District, a remnant of Dubai’s old town. A strong coffee enjoyed as you watch the dhows sail by in the creek grants you a magnificent glimpse at an earlier era! Visit the Dubai Museum, or learn about the religion of Islam at Jumeirah Mosque. Other attractions include the Heritage Village, the Wild Wadi Water Park, the Dubai Zoo, the Palm Islands, or the Gold Souk. Stay at the monumental Burj al-Arab Hotel, or enjoy the dining at the Highland Hotel on Khalid bin Waleed Road.
