The Emirates are bordered to the north by the Gulf and the Musandam Peninsula, to the east by Oman, to the south and west by Saudi Arabia and to the northwest by Qatar. The land is mountainous and mostly desert. Abu Dhabi is flat and sandy, and within its boundaries is the Buraimi Oasis. Dubai has a 16km- (10 mile-) deep-water creek, giving it the popular name of Pearl of the Gulf. A predominantly modern city, Abu Dhabi nevertheless retains some of its ancient past. The Diwan Amiri (White Fort) was built in 1793 and still survives. There are many mosques, from the huge blue mosque on the corner of the Corniche to the smaller one in the centre of Khalifa Street Roundabout, surrounded by trees. Dubai has outstanding sporting and conference facilities. Bur Dubai, the original town, has old buildings, atmospheric alleyways and markets.
- Ski Dubai
Following man-made islands, underwater hotels and rotating restaurants, Ski Dubai is the Emirates' latest extravaganza, bringing an Alpine experience to the middle of Dubai's desert. This monumental indoor snowdome has a capacity of 1500 guests and is one of the largest in the world. - Wild Wadi Water Park
With 30 rides and attractions, Wild Wadi (designed around a tale from Arabian Folklore featuring Juha and his seafaring friend, Sinbad), is packed with very wet thrills for kids and other brave souls. - Dubai Shopping Overview
Increasing numbers of shoppers choose Dubai as their favoured destination due to the combination of exoticism, absence of sales taxes, reasonable prices (even before bargaining!) and the variety of products on offer. From traditional souk districts selling gold and spices to modern shopping malls, department stores and exclusive boutiques, Dubai has it all. - Dubai Museum
Dubai's oldest building, the Al Fahidi Fort (built in 1787) houses the city's museum. - Bastakia District
The Bastakia district, on the waterfront east of the Dubai Souk and Diwan, features a number of traditional wind-tower houses - precursors to air conditioning.
