DUBAI INTRODUCTION, Introduction

Hi, my name’s Scott, and I’m your personal guide. Along with MyWoWo, I’d like to welcome you to one of the Wonders of the World: Dubai.

Dubai is one of the seven United Arab Emirates. Steeped in history and ancient traditions, this huge city is also ready to amaze the visitor with the multitude of ultra-modern attractions it has to offer!

In Dubai, visitors can still wander through authentic souks, the characteristic markets of the Arab world, as well as admire homes dating back to the last century, with their extraordinary windcatchers, a natural air conditioning system; you can also sail along the canal that crosses the city aboard an abra (a typical local boat), breathing in the Middle Eastern atmosphere, made up of colors, sounds, aromas and flavors.

What you’ll find most incredible of all is that most of what you can admire today has sprung up in the last thirty years, using ultra-modern techniques to give rise to projects that are futuristic to say the least.
