Dubai is one of the seven emirates comprising the United Arab Emirates (U.A.E.), which is located on the Persian Gulf. Unlike its neighboring cities and emirates, its economy is largely bolstered by the tourism and the free zone industries. Income from oil represents only a small portion of the emirate's revenues. Dubai is primarily known as the premier tourist destination in the region. This is complemented by the bustling port industry of Jebel Ali, which boasts of the world's largest man-made harbor.
However, the topography of Dubai is significantly different from that of the southern portion of the UAE in that much of Dubai's landscape is highlighted by sandy desert patterns, while gravel deserts dominate much of the southern region of the country. The sand consists mostly of crushed shell and coral and is fine, clean and white. East of the city, the salt-crusted coastal plans, known as sabkha, give way to a north-south running line of dunes. Farther east, the dunes grow larger and are tinged red with iron oxide.
Dubai has a hot and, at times, humid climate (drier during extreme heat) with many months recording temperatures of over 40 °C (104 °F). Rainfall is generally light, with a mean of about 150 millimeters (6 in) per year; precipitation is usually centered around January, February and March. However, heavy rain is not uncommon in Dubai during the winter months and January 2008 saw a record of 120mm (or 5") of rain falling in just 24 hours.The mean humidity in Dubai is about 60% and is higher during the cooler winter months.
Tours of Dubai
The city itself has so much to offer that it is difficult to know where to start. Organized tours are often the best way to get the most out of your holiday, especially if you are pressed for time. Bus tours are also a far more economical way of getting around than metered taxis. Historical tours, bus tours and shopping tours are offered by tour companies throughout the city and run both day and night.
Finally, no holiday to Dubai would be complete without a trip through the numerous souks in Bur Dubai and Diera. Shopping tours offer morning and afternoon trips to the most well known souks in the city. Trips out of the city allow for a more rounded experience of the Emirate, so if you get the chance to experience one they are definitely recommended. A trip to the tranquil Jebel Ali Beach can easily be done in a day, while trips to the historical town of Hatta, located in the spectacular Hajar Mountains, may require more time due to the fact that there is simply too much to see in a single day. |
