Dubai is the most populous city and emirate in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) with about 1,1 million inhabitants and the second largest emirate by territorial size after the capital, Abu Dhabi. Dubai is located on the southeast coast of the Persian Gulf and is one of the seven emirates that make up the country.
Dubai has emerged as a global city and business hub of the Persian Gulf region. By the 1960s the city’s economy was based on revenues from trade and oil exploration concessions but oil was not discovered until 1966. Dubai’s oil revenue helped to accelerate the early development of the city but its reserves are limited and production levels are low. Less than 5% of the emirate’s revenue comes from oil. Consequently, the economy was driven into the tourism and aviation sector as well as real estate and financial services. About 9 million tourists visit the city every year. Most travellers need to obtain a visa prior to entering Dubai but visitors from a number of states (e.g. from GCC countries, most European countries, Canada, Australia, United States) can get a free entry permit stamped in their passport valid for 90 days upon arrival.
Dubai has attracted world attention through many innovative large construction projects and sports events and the city has become symbolic for its skyscrapers and high-rise buildings including the world’s tallest artificial structure, the Burj Khalifa standing at 829,8 m (2.722 ft). The building features an outdoor observation deck, named “At the Top”, which opened in 2010 on the 124th floor at 452 m (1.483 ft). From there you can enjoy a perfect view over the city but tickets should be bought in advance through the internet due to high demand.
