Don't know what to visit in Dubai? We will tell you 5 mandatory points of the express program in Dubai.
Watch the sunset from the top of the world.
The 828-meter, 160-story Burj Khalifa tower is not just the tallest building in the world.
On the 124th floor, above the At. Mosphere restaurant (a cm osph ereb and rjkhalifa. Com), there is the Ac che Top observation deck (an interactive elevator rises there from the lower floor of the Dubai Mall, seven days a week, 8:30 am to 1 am, tickets can also be bought online, all information is at burjkhalifa.ae). At the foot of the tower is another world-class landmark - the largest fountain complex with 6,600 lights and 25 colored spotlights and impressive surround sound. Shows of dancing and singing fountains are held daily at 13:00 and 13:30, as well as every half hour from 18:00 to 23:00. From the excess of experienced emotions, you will have a real chance to ruin your makeup.
Visit the rehab for sea turtles at the Mina hotel.
A’SALAM For several years now Jumeirah has been carrying out a unique project to rescue giant (recently, for example, local biologists rescued Jade's green turtle, weighing 150 kg) sea turtles. This is a rare species, they are on the verge of extinction. Experts from the Wildlife Protection Office and the Burj Al Arab aquarium, as well as tourists themselves, collect weakened turtles, after which they are washed, cleaned of shells, fattened, if necessary, treated and released back into the sea. Some are equipped with GPRS-type sensors to track their movements.
Arrange a gastromarathon.
It's worth visiting Dubai, if only for food. The quality of cuisine and service has been brought to the highest level here and continues to improve, setting new standards for the world's top establishments. My choice is the Voi gastronomic restaurant at the Zabeel Saray with Vietnamese-French cuisine from colonial times, the Lalezar restaurant (ibid.) With Anatolian cuisine and handmade Ottoman frescoes, and the Lebanese Al Nafoorah (Jumeirah. Honeycomb). Sheikhs love to visit all these places, there are many of them in the Emirates, so it is better to book in advance.
Shoot shop windows The Dubai Mall - the largest shopping center in the world (over 1200 shops, an incredible aquarium, ice rink, amusement park). Showcases and interiors combine cutting edge digital technology with art and fashion (chedubaimall.com). The easiest way to get here is by metro (high-speed, silent, without drivers, with three classes of service) - there are also traffic jams in Dubai, although they look like an endless car dealership of super premium class models.
Become a Contemporary Art Expert. This year's Art Dubai, the premier contemporary art event in the Middle East and North Africa, will be held at Madinat Jumeirah from March 19-22 (arcdubai.ae). Every year, works by leading art galleries from around the world are exhibited here. In addition to the titled Damien Hirst and Yayoi Kusama, there will be many interesting regional artists.
This year, the curatorial section is dedicated to Central Asia and the Caucasus - works from the mid-20th century will be selected for the exposition. Art Dubai is just part of the Art Week project, which will host exhibitions and lectures at galleries in Al Quz and the Dubai International Financial Center. The fair impresses with its progressiveness, and the audience gathers accordingly.
