Dubai - World highest hotel Burj Al Arab
In the desert of the United Arab Emirates lies one of the most opulent tourist destinations on the planet - the city of Dubai. This oasis in a vast desert landscape is perfectly situated on the Persian Gulf, where light breezes flow inland to help cut through the heat of the day. Over the last few years, Dubai has witnessed massive industrial growth to become one of the most popular playgrounds of the rich and famous. With world famous hotels like the seven-star Burj al-Arab, and some of the tallest buildings in the world including the Emirates Towers and the Pentominium, the Dubai skyline is an impressive display of architecture against a backdrop of some of nature's most stunning displays. However, scenic backdrops and mile-high skyscrapers are only a fraction of Dubai's appeal.
