Beautiful Jumeirah Mosque. If you take one of these bus tours around Dubai, Hop on, hop off, you’ll get a chance to see the best places of Dubai. Usually, I’m strictly against these tours, but in case of Dubai, it’s worth it!
(Dubai is not precisely the best city for walking)

That’s a common situation on Dubai roads. The roads are closed because some very important person is taking this route. And everybody needs to wait.

Sunsets look amazing even if you’re in the bus. Atlantis the Palm Dubai.

…Ski Park! For God’s Sake, a ski park inside the mall! Isn’t this incredible? Wow, Dubai, you surprised me!

Well, if you leave the bus and go for a walk not in the fanciest district, you’ll see this. Dubai doesn’t seem so posh anymore, huh?

Until you get to Wafi mall. Forget about all the malls you’ve seen in your life. Even the one with the ski park some photos above. Because THIS IS A PROPER MALL. Just look at it!
