Dubai is shoppers’ paradise with a host of malls and hypermarkets to take care of the shopping needs. We visited a few of them like Ibn Battuta, Mall of the Emirates, Hyper Panda, and the collection they have is mind-blowing. If you are brand conscious, then Dubai is the place to be. All the major brands in the world have a representation.
The Mall of the Emirates is the largest shopping mall in the Middle East region. The mall also features Ski Dubai, the region’s first ski slope. This has become a must-see place in Dubai.
In 2008, Dubai will have the tallest building in the world – Burj Dubai – for which the construction was started in 2004. Dubai has been in the business of creating “biggest”, “highest”, “largest”, and this is one more addition to that list.

You name it, they have it. Dubai has plenty to offer for foodies. I could easily locate a restaurant or a coffee shop every 100 mts in prime localities. Not to forget the malls, which have huge food courts. We had a taste of India at the Malls of Emirates, and the Indian restaurant had more of Europeans and Arabs relishing on
kebabs,
rotis,
biryanis.
