In my initial post of Dubai, I mentioned Dubai as a concrete jungle (Travel-diaries-5-the-concrete-jungle-dubai, but here I write now Dubai a Glamorous city. This is what I feel after being here for a few days. I guess if not completely wrong but I did have some misconceptions of Dubai, and I kind of like the place after being there. We had a fabulous time and there are so many things to do here.
Dubai offers you a wide range of attractions, activities, fun, and adventure. Every age group will have something to look forward to here. Of course in our 5 days trip not that we could cover everything but then yes we tried our best to maximize as much as we could.
We visited IMG adventure park, Burj Khalifa, Aquarium & Underwater Zoo, Ski Dubai Snow Park, Global Village. Sharing a few pictures of our fabulous trip.

There a lot of countries represented here at Global Village, Sharing a Glimpse of a few countries representation at the Global Village
In adventure we covered Hot Air Balloon, Desert Safari and the kids also did Sky Diving which was the most memorable experience for them.
My first Hot Air Balloon ride experience in Life, It was a thrilling experience for me. I am not a very adventurous person, but these small expeditions do en-light me. This was 3500 feet high
And the kids enjoyed the Sky dive
Desert Safari was a nice experience, but I feel it could have been a little better experience. We had done a Desert Safari in Egypt, which I found was much better than this one, but overall we enjoyed a lot, there was aBelly dance, and a juggling fire act
What I missed out is the Miracle Garden, which we wanted to but due to time constraint we could not.
Overall it was a fun filled and a thrilling holiday, but yes Dubai is an expensive place and no amount of money is enough here, so if you are planning to make a trip make sure you have pockets full to enjoy the place thoroughly.
Some absolutely do not miss in Dubai is the Burj Khalifa, Desert Safari, If you are an adventurous person then sky diving, or if you are someone like me who would like to do something more relaxed then a Hot Air Balloon ride, and yes then of course try the Sheesha (Hookah) and the local cuisine. Do not miss to see the night life, you may not go to a pub for that, just go to the Burj Khalifa area and you will find almost the entire of Dubai there.

Ha ha ha. The hot Air Ballooning was indeed an adventure. We were just standing in a halfopen basket with just a belt round our waist for safety. Indeed an experience espacially while landing with 3 bumps and the basket tumbling over :-). Many thanks for your suppprt Gautam.
Ah, they included 'Shirshasan' in the package, Nainaz!

Hello wonderful @nainaztengra ,
I'm so glad to read that you had this wonderful time with your family in Dubai. You really went for the big experience! I like the joy that you bring to life. Your family is so lucky to have you.

upvoted !!!
Thanks sweetie for your wonderful comments as always. We 4 had indeed quality time. The men were taking a lot of videos of the belly dancer :-). Maybe i will check it out with my husband :-)
Yes we do have a few Videos, but how can I share it with you?
Often when we react to things or situation it is because of our preconceived notions. It is when we experience that thing with an accepting attitude and an open mind that we get to understand it better. I am so glad you enjoyed your visit to Dubai and like it better now. :)
Thanks sweetie for your words of wisdom. Love your comments my dear friend. Take care and have a great day.

Thanks buddy for your support. Indeed it was an adventurous trip and we all loved it :-).
Well that’s the main thin
Have a
wow.. i worked as an OFW in dubai for two years but never experienced all of these.. i really missed it
Dont tell me that u didnt visit any of these places with 2 years in Dubai. I must say you have missed some fun. Do visit them if u get a chance again. Following u now.
thanks sis.. yeah unfortunately because I was working hard...lols.. perhaps in the near future i will be able to come back for a visit and check those locations! my parents and brothers were able to go to miracle garden and other spots
sooo fantastic ! It reminds me the first time I went to Las Vegas : our room had two opposite windows. One showing a town drown in lights, colors, water spring , flowers and wonders... and the other one showed the desert, so black at night and so empty at day... may be it is the same in Dubai ? thank you for your post !
Yes to an extent you can compare it to LV though not in all aspects. The lighting of the place is very glamorous which gives all the beauty to this City.
Woah! Nainaz! This is a wonderful experience! I am acrophobic, I think I will die if I do that. Haha! Good photo of Dubai!
Thanks buddy for your kind words. You need to have an adventurous life :-).
Great post. Great photos

Dubai looks so intoxicating and inviting. I love the architectural design of the buildings. Excellent photos of the Burj Khalifa and Palm Island, both are modern day marvels. Yes it is expensive to visit but worth the trip it appears.

That's so cool !! i have been in Dubai more than 4 times. It is an excellent choise for Christmas Vacation.
I am sure during Christmas the lighting and glamour will be much more then the normal days so it is going to be one exclusive feast for the eyes :-)
Yes, Dubai is an artificial wonderful city, worth to visit at least once in a lifetime.
True Chetan, its truly incredible how they have made up such a glamorous city out of nothing
