Day 3 – At Leisure in Dubai
Dubai's rapid transformation has left it with a slice of old Arabia and a chunk of modern infrastructure. In Dubai, you'll find souks selling gold jewelry and traditional wares not far from modern shopping centers selling electronics and luxury items. Visitors to Dubai will also see wind towers and minarets rising up from old neighborhoods, dwarfed in turn by Dubai's office and hotel towers. But the biggest contrast can be seen in Dubai's landscape: A beautiful coastline and beaches are backed by an equally expansive desert, which in itself is a magnificent paradox of impressive sand dunes and starkly beautiful mountains.
