Another city rising out of the desert is threatening Las Vegas'' reputation as the world''s playground. Dubai may not have the wealth of casinos but it has spectacular architecture, breath taking beaches and hotels that take luxury to a whole new level.

Although it may be a well used clich?, you should ''expect the unexpected'' from Dubai. This desert oasis can satisfy your every whim with its sheer extravagance and show.

Look up when you begin your sightseeing tour. At 828 metres tall, the Burj Al Arab hotel is the world''s tallest building and Dubai proudly announces that it is over 300 metres taller than the next tallest the Taipei 101 in Taiwan.

Discover how Dubai transformed itself from unassuming village to global village at the Dubai Museum. You''ll also learn about its people from the nomadic tribes to today''s business elite.

For a vivid glimpse of traditional Dubai, away from the glass and metal high-rises and designer-boutique-filled malls, Bastakiya is the place to go. This small area has been recently renovated to rekindle images of its ''hey-day'' but mingling modern touches such as ...
... cafes and art galleries with sand-coloured stone houses wrapped around a maze of lanes, courtyards and gardens.

Dubai allows us to act like children. If the desert heat gets too much then head over to the world''s largest indoor ski slope and practice your carving turns of tricks in the Fun Park. What is even more spectacular however, is that the slope is located within one the many city malls, giving you an idea of the size of the malls and hence the importance of shopping to the city of Dubai.

If however, you like the heat head over to Wild Wadi where you can slip and slide your way around one of the world''s best water theme parks. The giant park dominates some of the city''s sky line with shoots and flumes and giant wave pools.

Dubai has many of the world''s most spectacular and opulent hotels. For a really unique experience travel 45 minutes outside of Dubai to the Al Maha Desert Resort and Spa. This is a camp site like you have never seen before.

Wake up in your own huge Bedouin-style tent to views of the Hajar Mountains and your own private swimming pool. You''ll never be able to be satisfied with a camping trip to the New Forest ever again.

Depending on what you are into Dubai can offer fun and frivolity or luxury peace and quiet. But one thing is guaranteed, it won''t be in a manner you expected.
