Travel Escort:Endless Pleasure in Dubai on it's Rising Edifice and Gleaming City Lights

Rekindle your love in the city that persistintly emerging.

Isn’t it that when we are talking about Dubai, the first place that reminds us always was the architecture building design called the Burj Al Arab, the 7 Star Hotel the what we commonly described as a sail building, because of its nautical design?, either the latest tallest building in the world, the gigantic Burj Khalifa, the 7 Star Hotel? Hey, Listen! That’s only one of those luxury hotel that we can soothly lodge in the city, for there were more hotels that are rising aside from this?

Now, before we leap into that “Luxurious Hotel?”, let’s first see what does this Palm Leaf, really represents in Dubai, since this would be an astounding architecture design we observed on their artificial island resorts side in Palm Jumeirah, Deira Island, and Palm Jebe Ali. Infact, Mohamed Khalifa Al Mubarak, Chairman of DCT Abu Dhabi said that “for generations, palm trees have been a vital and authentic element in the heritage of Arab culture, and it is seen as a symbol of generosity on which many of our cultural values are based.” On the other hand, Dubai built the Palm Tree Islands to increase the beach for tourists. Dubai is known for its steamy weather and beach, but more than 72 Km coastline was needed to accommodate the goal of tripling the number of tourists to 15 million annually in 2006. The solution was to construct a massive island shaped like a Palm Tree.

Palm Jumeirah is an artificial archipelago built by Nakheel located on the Jumeirah coastal area in Dubai. The island is a mixed use development comprising of commercial, retail, residential & hospitality projects. Omar Zaher, while working in KCA International as a Project Manager, managed the design team along with mock-up supervision for the Signature, Garden & Canal Cove villas with different architectural schemes and also 3 different interior design schemes namely, modern, classical & traditional.

Looking over to some of the luxury hotels in Dubai, Let’s begin to figure out what we can discover to these outshine adventures in Gevora Hotel, Atlantis The Palm and The First Collection at Jumeirah Village Circle.

TIPS TO TRAVEL IN DUBAI

You can expect consistently pleasant weather between November and March -- daily maximum temperatures will be in the upper-70s, which is warm enough to enjoy the beaches and those amazing luxury hotel pools, as well as getting out to explore the sights without having to constantly duck into air conditioning. Overnight, the temperature drops to the low-60s, which is comfortable for sleeping. So while the weather is great, Dubai can be really crowded and hotel rates rocket. The popular Atlantis The Palm hotel can be booked for a little as $250 per night during August while prices soar up to $850-plus per night in December.

Christmas is obviously a popular time to visit, and January also sees the Dubai Shopping Festival, where tourists flock to the city to enjoy huge discounts on all sorts of items. For instance, you could get 78% off gaming consoles and up to 80% off selected women's fashions at NissNass. So if you are planning to visit Dubai in January, make sure you leave some room in the suitcase.

First and foremost, set your hotel booking ahead of time to avoid delays and uneccessary circumstances that may arise during your check-in. Catch us in our next issue, we’ll be featuring the place where tranquil matters.
