Dazzling Dubai Ex Kolkata - Delhi Weekend Getaways

The emirate of Dubai is synonymous with humongous as it continues to build the first, largest and the biggest constructions in the world. Dubai's dynamics are always transient and ever-changing with its constant urge to construct something better and bigger than the previous. If there was a Palm Island, Nakheel thought of the World Island. Burj Al Arab seemed too timid when Burj Khalifa cropped up, distancing itself to being a loner in the crowd. Dubai constantly dwells in a suppressive competition with itself trying to magnetize tourists to a dreamy world of attractions and unheard of luxuries. The emirate's scoring points lie in its entrepreneurial abilities to create the inconceivable found in its tourist attractions, landmarks, shopping centres, nightlife and hotels. Although it strictly safeguards its traditional practices, it allows space for other religions to breathe, a rare quality amongst the conservative Arab world. Thankfully, it has been successful in shielding itself from extremism, much-needed for it to survive. A newbie tourist to Dubai can get confused as it offers an exciting abundance of attractions, activities, shopping and nightlife. Here's a top list of things to do when holidaying in Dubai. Burj Al Arab Everyone dreams of staying at the Burj Al-Arab, the most extravagant hotel in the world. However, world's first seven star hotel developed by Jumeirah Hotels & Resorts chooses its customers and not vice versa. Burj Al Arab's billowing sail enjoys being a focus of public attention with its glittery gold interiors, ultra-spacious suites and the heightened level of luxury offered. Palm Islands When innovation meets hard work, the resuls are astounding as seen at the Palm Islands in Dubai, an ambitious project visualized by Nakheel Properties, these man-made islands were constructed to accommodate the ever-growing tourist influx in Dubai. Shaped to resemble a palm tree, the Palm Trilogy defines everyday luxury living. Buddha Bar Buddha Bar had enough credit points when it opened its dramatically designed bar in Grosvenor House, Dubai. The pygmy feeling overpowers you as you enter the mammoth door to be welcomed by a serene Buddha statue, plush interiors and sparkling chandeliers. Frequented by the glamour world, the excessively expressive interiors and wallet ripping drinks do make an impact. Barasti Barasti has held a special place in the hearts of tourists for more than ten years, from when it was just an ordinary beach shack overlooking the Arabian Sea. Today, an award-winning bar, brimming with excitement Barasti offers what an avid bar-goer awaits - delicious menu, divine cocktails and foot-tapping music from an in-house band. Beaches Beaches are a prominent part of Dubai's identity as most star hotels are located on the Jumeirah stretch, many having their own private beach access. The major two, Palm Beach and Jumeirah Beach offer a wide range of recreational activities for holidaymakers such as water sports, swimming and beach bumming. Shopping Dubai is a shopaholic's paradise as it showcases the best brands around the world in its humongous malls. The icing on the cake is the never-experienced before entertainment facilities like the indoor ski resort, 22-screen cineplex, single volume largest aquarium and a stretch of glittering gold and aromatic spice shops.
