Dubai has done some amazing things. They will surely move into the twenty-first century.

well, lets not bring religion into this matter, after all, all the religions want peace. trust me, the media has given our religion a bad name. but what u may have heard about islam is possibly not true. every1 is free to follow any religion they want. and the ppl living here in dubai follow any religion they like :)


yes dubai maybe in a big debt, but the captial "Abu Dhabi" of United Arab Emirates are there for the rescue, coz the capital is really really really loaded :P well lets hope for the best n hope that economy becomes stable everywhere in the world :) amen
cheers :D

Falling oil reserves are why they are making their country into a hot-spot for the rich/vacationing. And I hope to visit someday, maybe even buy an artificial Island(yes I'm dreaming).

This looks like a fantastic building although it would probably scare me to be up that high.

I went up to the Seattle needle and that was a little weird with all the vibrations and the wind, you think you're moving (you probably are). I went up the Twin Towers in Manhattan (both) and the Empire State Building. That was high enough for me :)

The fireworks looks incredible on my little screen, so I wonder what it was really like in person.

I've seen some photographs of achitectural wonders in Dubai, especially that hotel with incredible views, built for kings and queens, no doubt. How do people come up with such incredible ideas and then manage to build them, too?

I only wish I could afford to see these wonders in person. Alas, it's all very far and probably very expensive. Good thing we can see some online :)
