About Dubai

A city on the Gulf coast of the United Arab Emirates, laid out along one main road with a driverless metro running its length, so local transport stays a small line for anyone staying near a station. Beaches and the creek cost nothing, while towers, aquariums and desert trips are ticketed. November to March is the comfortable season; heat from June to September pushes daytime life indoors.
