6.5 totally Unconventional Reasons why I Love DUBAI!

Dubai, is everyone's favourite travel destination. Believe me not just Indians, but everyone across the globe is crazy about this city which has the 'est' factor as it's USP. Oh ofcourse you know the 'est' factor; tallest, largest, costliest and the list is endless. So here goes my 6.5 reasons why I absolutely am in love with the place.

1. The Burj Khaleefa.

view from the 'Burj Khaleefa'

It's simply magnificient, 200 plus stories this super tall.. taller.. tallest building (record holder when i was writing this post) is just magnificiently breathtaking. From any corner of Dubai you can see the towering structure and it has the capablity to make you feel sheer amazement, everytime. At night the lights strategically placed twinkle across the 'burj' giving you the feel of looking at a bejewelled masterpiece. 'AT THE TOP' the view is simply amazing and unless you experience it you will never know how beautiful is Dubai's ariel view.

2. Opulence and the planned city!

The Burj-Al-Arab one of the iconic and most expensive hotels of the world.

Perfectly planned, perfectly managed, clean, tidy, green (in the middle of a desert) and overflowing with opulence, this city will want you to make it your home. Sky scrapers, each one in a unique shape, metro stations, big luxury cars at every corner, bigger malls and a plethora of entertainment opportunities avaliable.

3. No homesickness.

Bollywood stars smiling at you from across the huge hoardings greet you, FM stations playing bollywood songs and IPL crazy banners across the prime area's; what more can make an Indian feel at home? Ofcourse every third tourist or local might turn out to be an Indian so that makes you feel in a clearner and well mannered version of India.

4. Paradise for adventure lovers.

The huge aquarium inside the Atlantis hotel.

You have scuba diving, snorkelling, bungee jumping, para gliding, sky diving,  snow world, water parks, adventure parks, kiss-the-dolphins, dolphin shows, rappling and almost every form of adreline racing adventurous, fun filled activity in one city.

5. Atlantis-the palm.

Atlantis-The Palm Hotel.

Atlantis- the palm, is one of the 5 start luxurt hotels and huge is the only word for it. It has it's own beaches man made and natural, a water park, a huge line of restraunts, luxury shopping, you name it and they have it. Themed as the ancient city which sunk under the oceans, the place gives you a fishy feeling :P the in-house huge aquarium and aquatic life makes you fall in love with it instantly. Oh did i mention the man-made island of 'palm Jumerah' that the huge Atlantis is built on? 

6. Global Curry.

The city that captured my heart.

 The moment you land on the airport you have a huge curry of different people from across the globe. Huge eyes, small eyes, yellow, white, black or brown skin, abbaya's, sarees, shorts and jeans all mingle around bringing along with them a touch of their own flavor for you to expereience in this truly global city.

The 0.5 of my 6.5 is the fact that every visit to this city has something new for you to experience and fall in love with.

And with that I say Adios!
