There are plenty of delightful art galleries and cafes to explore in an evocative atmosphere. Al Ahmadiya School in Deira was Dubai’s 1st school... more which was built in 1912 and has now been restored as a tourist attraction. Jumeirah Mosque is one of the more attractive mosques and is also open for non-Muslims with guided tours. Dubai Museum offers a fascinating audio-visual tour showcasing the transition of Dubai from a poor village to a modern metropolitan city. Burj al-Arab hotel is the only 7-star hotel in the world. Burj Dubai is the world’s tallest structure standing with a height of more than 600m and is visible from almost any part of the city.
