Travel Photo of the Day: Dubai, United Arab Emirates

Dubai is one of the fastest growing cities in the world today.

With many new buildings popping by the minute, the city seems to be re-shaping itself every day. However, the Burj Al Arab hotel tower (photo above) is still the most famous city landmark.

Dubai offers different outdoor activities. The beaches in Dubai (Jumeirah Beach and Al Mumzar Beach Park) can get crowded on weekends and offer activities for everyone.

You can also book Desert Safari Tours from Dubai. They can pick you up in the city and drive you to the desert, which is around 45 minutes away.

And for those who can’t stand the heat outside, Dubai offers huge shopping centers and all types of markets. At Mall of the Emirates you can find Ski Dubai, a very popular indoor ski resort.
