Yo,

Lots of shopping centres! Obviously the self claimed 7-star Burj Al Arab Hotel, indoor ski slope in Mall of the Emirates, and many more shopping centres.

Its just too damn hot to even consider walking in the streets. Temps are around mid 40 deg C at the moment with humidiity.

Dubai don't have a lot to offer the sightseer, its pretty fake and souless.

Its true Dubai,

That is the general consensous when speaking to most people. I agree it can be pretty vibrant and lively, but I do not believe it has a SOUL. Its all about money, and thats it. All these buildings are new and fancy, but where is the history?
