Things to do in Dubai in Summer

Here is a list of Dubai’s best places to go to in Summer. These places will get you a true taste of Dubai.

Burj Al Arab

The pleasant silhouette of Burj–intended to evoke the sail of a dhow-is the Eiffel Tower of Dubai to Paris. This emblematic landmark was completed in 1999, and it sits on an island of art and features a helipad and a fleet of Rolls Royce limousine chauffeur-driven. Over the striking lobby lies 202 suites more trimmings than a Christmas turkey with its golden leaf and a well-grooming fountain.

If you only want to go inside, that’s as garish as the outside is beautiful, it is worth visiting. The atmosphere is set in the 180 m high lobby adorned in a red, blue and green colour scheme and accentuated by gold-leafed pillars. The atrium of the lobby is large enough to fit into the Statue of Liberty.

You must reserve a restaurant for passing the lobby safety if you’re not staying at the hotel.

Burj Khalifa

The Khalifa Burj, with two decks on the 124th and 148th floors and a restaurant-bar on the 122nd, is a wonderful feat of architecture and engineering. Six years after excavations started, the world’s highest building passed the sky at 828 meters and was opened in January 2010. Book tickets online up to 30 days in advance, to prevent waiting times or costly admission to the fast track. Note that Dubai often has elevated humidity in a thick haze and feels less than stunning views.

Madinat Jumeirah

A modern interpretation of a traditional Arab village with a souq, palm-fringed rivers, desert-clad hotels or villas fascinated by wind towers, Madinat Jumeirah is one of the most appealing developments in Dubai. In the night when the gardens become romantically lit, and Burj Al Arab shines in the background, it is especially enchanting. Exquisite details are available throughout so that you can take a few stairs to a hidden terrace with the majestic view of the vast complex.

Souk Madinat Jumeirah is at the core of the complex, a labyrinth-like bazaar with stores lining wooded paths. While the atmosphere is too devised for an authentic Arab market, there’s a very high quality of craft, art and souvenirs. See what’s playing at the Madinat Theatre if you like a bit of western culture.

Gold Souq

Gold (and sometimes silver) is everything along this arcade, where dozens of stores overflowing with every kind of gems, from sensitive Perl earrings to sumptuous gold wedding necklaces. It’s just a treat to watch the events. Sit down on a bench and enjoy the vibrant street theatre of hard-working Afghan males who carry heavy goods carts, African women who shop in colourful caftans, and local females. In the evening, it’s most lively.
