Heritage House - Dubai

The UAE is becoming the main transit hub between Europe and East. This is such a perfect opportunity to explore here! I have lived in Dubai for two years and found the beauty of this place (despite the hell of summer) in its people and diverse culture. People from hundreds of nationalities are jointly living in this country bringing their cultures, their food, their stories. All this joined together with typical Arab hospitality culture. Look beyond touristic attractions (that are in this guide, because they are pretty cool). Enjoy the food, enjoy the people. Oh, ENJOY NATURE! There are pretty amazing hikes. Some of them are very dangerous. I provide in the guide the contact of my favourite guide and friend. I hope you will enjoy!

Dubai, the bustling metropolis of the United Arab Emirates, is a city where tradition meets the cutting edge of modernity in a way few places can match. Known for its iconic skyline and boundary-pushing architecture, Dubai is home to landmarks like the Burj Khalifa, the world’s tallest structure, symbolizing the city's ambition and global prominence. Alongside its modern marvels, Dubai’s heritage neighborhoods, such as Al Fahidi Historical District, preserve the city's historical essence with wind-tower architecture and traditional souks, reflecting its roots as a small trading port. Dubai’s visionary projects like the Museum of the Future further underscore its commitment to innovation, positioning the city as a global hub for culture, technology, and finance. The blend of heritage and futuristic developments makes Dubai a unique destination that celebrates its past while embracing the possibilities of tomorrow.
