A futuristic megalopolis — the world's tallest tower, desert safaris, and luxury shopping collide.
Dubai has risen from desert to futuristic megalopolis in just 50 years — the world's tallest building, largest mall, only seven-star hotel, and the luxury-filled Palm Jumeirah artificial island are all here. Yet the city also offers desert safaris, dhow boat cruises on Dubai Creek, and the authentic market atmosphere of the Deira district.
