Tourist Information about Dubai
Among the seven emirates of the United Arab Emirates , Dubai is considered as the second largest emirate after Abu Dhabi . Unlike other UAE emirates, Dubai does not rely heavily on its crude oil for its continuing economic growth with only 10% of the city's revenue credited on the sale of oil. The Jebel Ali Free Zone has had a major impact in Dubai 's economic development as it continues to attract foreign investors. And with a tax free environment and countless malls, boutiques and souks (markets), Dubai has become a shopping haven to tourists. Millions visit the city particularly for its shopping festivals. Aside from international trade and other finance and service related industries, tourism has also been playing a major role in generating the city's revenues. With futuristic skyscrapers and unique building structures, Dubai has attracted several tourists from all over the world. The sail-shaped Burj Al Arab hotel is one of the city's famous structures. |
