Dubai City Profile- Quick Overview

Dubai is located on the Eastern coast of the Arabian Peninsula, in the south west corner of the Arabian Gulf. It is extremely well known for its warm hospitality and rich cultural heritage, and the Emirati people are welcoming and generous in their approach to visitors. With year-round sunshine, intriguing deserts, beautiful beaches, luxurious hotels and shopping malls, fascinating heritage attractions and a thriving business community, Dubai receives millions of leisure and business visitors each year from around the world.

The local currency is the dirham, which is pegged at AED 3.67 to 1 US dollar. Dubai is a real melting pot of nations, races, cultures; the result is a colorful, energetic and tolerant society. However, Islam is a way of life in the city, and therefore tourists should adopt a certain level of cultural and religious sensitivity for the duration of their stay.

UAE is a truly family-oriented society. The country offers a wide variety of schools and universities from many education systems. Quality medical services industry is being rapidly developed. Trade has always been one of the pillars of the economy of the country; the modern super-malls just elevated it to the art level. The grandeur and elaboration of the municipal infrastructure projects is truly amazing. Meanwhile, despite the high quality of life, the cost of living in the UAE is not too high.

Residential areas in Dubai vary drastically, from breathtaking beauty to crowded run-down areas. Visit our Property Guide  to find out which is the best for you.
