Must Visit Tourist Places in Dubai
DUBAI is one-of the most favorite holiday destinations for tourists these days. Majorly because of ease of getting tourist visas for citizens of any nationality, easy accessibility & availability of flights from most of the countries of the world and lots of places to explore for all age groups and ethnicity.
Dubai offers variety of places to see & visit like Burj Khalifa, Burj Al Arab, Dubai Frame; marvelous gardens like Miracle Garden, Dinosaur Park, Glow Garden; theme parks like Legoland, Bollywood Park; adventures like Sky Diving, Desert Safari, Underwater zoo, Dolphinarium, Ski Dubai; Jumeirah Beach etc. and lots and lots of shopping places like souk, Bur Dubai, gold souk, Dubai Mall, Ibn Batuta Mall etc.
It is impossible to cover all of Dubai in just 1-week long trip. To experience the essence of Dubai and enjoy all of the must-visit touristy places, one definitely needs more time to spend here.
Best Season to Visit Dubai:
Thought Dubai offers fun and entertainment through out the year. There are few attractions that are difficult to experience during hot summer months of July & August like Desert Safari, Dhow Cruise, Miracle Garden, Dinosaur Park etc.
The tourist companies and some theme parks have special offers and packages during the holy month of Ramadan. So one can plan a Dubai tour during Ramadan as well.
Few not-to-be missed places and experiences in Dubai are:
BURJ KHALIFA – One cannot afford to miss going to the top of the world’s tallest building which 829.8m high, holding few of the world records in it’s name. It’s an astounding experience of going up to Level 154 and witnessing the sunrise or the sunset from that height.
