To the world, Dubai is a city of superlatives. But for those who need a break from the splendours of Arabian wealth, hidden among this concrete maze of a cosmopolitan city are little chunks of tradition and culture.
Take in the tantalizing smell of Kebabs smothered in spices, watch as the glass facade of the Marina give way to a night sky right out of an Arabian tale, complete with gently swaying Dhows at anchor. Or head out to the desert where camels still roam free and camps are alive with belly dancers and Hookah smoke. And if you are keen on taking home a souvenir or two, haggle at the charming old souks.
On your next holiday in Dubai, forget the 5-stars and branded shopping bags – there is a lot more to experience outside the hotels and malls.
1) Explore the sea of sand
2) Take a walk through the bylanes of the past
3) Bargain at the Souks
4) Sail along the creek
5) Eat like a king, pay like a pauper
