Burj Al Arab

The Burj Al Arab, a beautiful hotel designed to look like a sailing ship on the Persian Gulf, opened in 1999 and became a symbol of Dubai's prosperity due to its sheer scale and luxury. The hotel is known for its luxurious seven-star service, including gold-toned Arabic décor, spacious maisonette-type rooms, and Rolls-Royce transportation.

Jumeirah

Jumeirah is a waterfront district of Dubai facing the Persian Gulf. It is a glamorous resort area with gorgeous hotels lining several beaches. A short stroll away from the sun-drenched beaches, you can take in some Arabic culture at Dubai's most beautiful mosque, or discover cutting-edge cafes and boutiques in the elegant residential neighborhoods.
