I visited Dubai last year in Dec 2015. It’s very clean and alive.
One recommendation for all who are planning for Dubai Yatra. Normally we visit all the famous infrastructure as Burj-Al-Arab, Burj Khalifa, Atlantis etc but don’t miss the ***’Heritage village’*** and local places near Al-ghubaiba metro station. You will fall in love with the place.
You should also spent some time in ***’Bastakiya’***. Another nice place to get closer to Dubai culture and history.
I missed one place called ***’Al-Ain’***. Next time I will cover this.:)
*Note:** Don’t forget to get the ***’Silver NOL’*** metro card. This will save a lot of money during travel. All popular places are near metro stations.
