Where is Dubai?

Dubai is located in the northeast of the United Arab Emirates, on the southern coast of the Persian Gulf. The population is approximately 3.4 million, making it the most populous of the seven emirates that make up the UAE. Abu Dhabi, the capital of the UAE, is 76 miles southwest of Dubai.

An estimated 85% of Dubai’s residents were born overseas. While the official language of the UAE is Arabic, English is used widely. Most signs are also written in both Arabic and English. The currency in the UAE is the dirham, with 100 files making up one dirham. 

You can fly to Dubai from almost every region of the world. Then, once you’re here, there’s a fast, frequent, and ultra-modern metro and tram network to get you to any area of the city.

Business in Dubai

The UAE is one of the 30 largest economies in the world, despite having a population of less than ten million. 

Although much of the nation’s wealth comes from oil revenues, this isn’t the case in Dubai, which is one of the richest cities in the Middle East region. Here, oil makes up only a small part of the city economy, with significant business sectors including automotive manufacture, aerospace, petrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, advertising, financial services, information technology, real estate, tourism, and hospitality.

Some of the many international companies with a presence in Dubai are Emirates Airways, Unilever, General Electric, Nestle, PwC, Procter & Gamble, Deloitte, IBM, Microsoft, and HSBC. 

Dubai was chosen as the venue for the six-month-long Expo 2020 (although the event was delayed until October 2021), the world’s largest business convention. The Expo was predicted to create 300,000 new jobs in the city.

For whatever reason you are visiting the city, whether it is for a small networking event or for relocation, there are many high-standard, corporate Dubai apartments available that can cater for your business travel needs.

Things to Do in Dubai

Rising to 830 metres, the Burj Khalifa is the tallest building in the world. There is nothing that quite matches the experience of riding the lift to the observation deck on the 160th floor of the Burj Khalifa! The fountains at the foot of the building are also well worth seeing, where the water and lights are coordinated with the music in an incredible synchronised display.

The city offers several other experiences with incredible views. The Dubai Frame has been described as the world’s largest picture frame at 150 metres high, where you can walk along the glass walkway at the top.

You can watch horse racing in many parts of the world. However, this unique city hosts regular camel racing events as well at the Al Marmoom track.

In a city where so many buildings are ultra-modern, it’s well worth seeking out something different and wandering through the Al Fahidi district, which was constructed in the 19th century.

Unless you’re a Muslim, the only mosque you can visit in Dubai is Jumeirah Mosque. Its breath-taking white stone exterior, imposing minarets, and enormous central dome are well worth seeing.

Although our self-catering accommodation in Dubai has cooking facilities, in this multi-cultural city you can sample almost any type of international cuisine in its varied restaurants. Some of the best can be found in the Dubai Mall, and include Pan-Asian, Italian, Indian, and Middle Eastern food.
