    This is a very shrewd analysis of Dubai. If you like window shopping for luxury goods that you have no intention of buying, then the city is a wonderful, sparking, glass and concrete fantasy box. . The Gold Suq alone is unforgettable, and the trip across the creek is one of the greatest bargains in the Arab Gulf, particularly if you do that trip around sunset. It's pure magic. The Dubai Metro is also a clean, convenient ant totally safe way to get around the city, and it offers some spectacular views. Don't be fooled by the name. Most of the Metro actually runs above ground. For "authentic" Dubai on a budget, eat at, or near, a bus station along with the Bangladeshi/Indian/Pakistani workers and stay in Deira, rather than out along the Jumeirah, Dubai Marina side. You can have a lot of fun, but do not be seduced by the hype.

    Dubai gets a lot of hate. Yes it can be flashy but you don't need to be mega rich to enjoy yourself. I hated on it before I visited (wife wanted to go) and I took back everything I ever said. It's safety, cleanliness, so much to do. My fave thing to do was the desert safari, which is a shame you didn't manage to do.

      It can definitely be said that Dubai is a transient tourist hub with no community and culture. But it also has a lot of positive things as well. It's just like every other place. You have the good and the bad. I want to visit the Doobuy myself one day. But I like Oman more.

    I love traveling and nature, and i saw many UA-camrs, who travel just for their YT video or to show themselves on camera,
    But you are a real nature lover and traveler, who has left his home and living a van life just for traveling.
    Really impressive ❤

    I spent 2 weeks in the Middle East over Christmas and New Years, I visited the UAE, Saudi Arabia and Oman. Dubai was my least favorite city, I did like Abu Dhabi better. I felt as you did, and I spent a lot of time talking to the working class people and stayed in an area where the working class lives, it was shocking to see some of the buildings how dirty and unkept they were. Some people told us they worked 7 days a week 16 hours a day, some just get to go home to sleep and then they were right back out. I have friends that live there and it was really great to visit with them but I don't think I will ever go back. It was just not for me.

    Well done, you took me to a place I have not been before. And the nice bit is you're clearly genuine and balanced and hence I trust your thoughtful opinions. I think I'll follow another postive tip of yours and take the family to visit Oman instead, it sounds a far nicer place.

    8:53 that is not the worlds largest gold ring. And its only 21kt. It weighs 64kg (141lbs). Its diameter is 49cm.
    According to the Guinness World Records........straight from their website
    "The largest gold ring weighs 82.2 kg (181.2 lbs) and was created by Mokingran Jewelry Group Co., Ltd (China) in Changle, Shandong, China on 18 May 2016. The ring is 24-karat gold. It has a diameter of 79.28 cm (31.2 inches)."

    Dubai looks awful, rather like a theme park, and seems to have a lot in common with Qatar and Bahrain
    It seems remarkable that these city states with their overtly materialistic values have developed in the Muslim world.
    Oman looks magnificent and Iraq is fascinating but these modern cities seem soulless.
