4 Quirky Things Everyone Loves About Dubai

By Dinesh Singh @travellerpath

Dubai is the city which has always raised eyebrows. On more than one occasion will it cause you to almost shudder! It becomes intensely horrifying to realize that there is this place in the world, not far from India, where human engineering knows no limits. It is as if Dubai is a cut-off town, an alien place which has just been thrown from the space onto the Earth. The place already has plenty of records to its names. So, Dubai honeymoon package does not require much effort to find takers. The mere mention of this destination is appealing enough to send prospective honeymooners in a gleeful tizzy.

Without teasing the imaginations of the readers further, let us take a plunge into the promised list of four quirky things everyone loves about this place:

You can reach the top of the artificial world: The natural highest point on Earth is Mount Everest (of course, you knew that)! But the artificial or manmade attraction which is the giant of all is Burj Khalifa. It is the tallest landmark ever built by man. If such things were to happen in India, there would have been some absurd protests and cases of suicides and soon enough the government would have barricaded the entire thing. In fact, in Delhi, even the humble Qutub Minar (which is a dwarf in comparison to Burj Khalifa) is out of bounds for general public. You may photograph it from a distance but you cannot run up its staircases and reach the top! But you get that unique opportunity at Burj Khalifa where you can access the top storey via super-fast elevators. Plus, the sheer technological innovation at this landmark always hypnotizes. So, Dubai honeymoon packages from Delhi always find a good reason to lure excited honeymooners.

You can get wild at night: This point must not be taken at its face value. The intent of the author is to convey that the nightlife at Dubai is unrestrainedly wild, contrary to some delusory notions which first-time tourists have. UAE, unlike the rest of the Middle East, is jubilantly liberal.

You can shop at a mall where you will get lost: Dubai’s malls are humongous and the biggest draws are Dubai Mall and Mall of the Emirates. The former is the largest shopping mall on the planet. It is so huge that first-time visitors usually get lost in its maze of shops, eateries and attractions. Nevertheless, the visit is going to be one special piece of memory which will never get lost in your mind.

You can swim with the dolphins: Dubai is best remembered by many for giving them the golden chance to swim with the dolphins. The experience will cost you a lot of money but then it is something you do only once in your life. If you feel scared of the huge aquatic mammals (though they are very friendly and disarmingly cute), you can always settle for the innocuous dolphin show which you can enjoy from a safe distance.

All in all, several other unique attractions and experiences await you in this enchanting place. The popularity of honeymoon packages Dubai seems unstoppable as of now.
