Dubai is fast becoming one of the most visited cities in the world. And no wonder. Year on year, the desert city by the sea gets better and better. It's a truly amazing place to visit. Take a look at some of the most popular tourist attractions in Dubai:

Burj Al Arab

Gold Souk

The Gold Souk is the terrific area of the city where you'll see more gold than at a professional darts tournament. There are dozens of shops selling unique gold jewellery as well as a good selection of silver items. If you're looking for gold jewellery, this is the place to visit. Just remember to barter. Start at half the quoted price and work your way up.

Wild Wadi

Wild Wadi is Dubai's Arabian themed water park for kids and big kids alike. With over 20 fun rides to enjoy, expect to spend a full day at this fantastic attraction. This is without doubt one of the best water parks in the world. Highly recommended.

Mall of the Emirates

The Mall of the Emirates is one of the biggest shopping complexes in the world. The mall's 6.5 million sq ft houses familiar names such as Harvey Nichols, Marc Jacobs and Debenhams. It really is a shopping paradise irrespective of your tastes or budget. And if all these shops weren't enough, the mall also boasts an indoor ski slope. Shopping and skiing - what a combination!
