Global Village in Dubai

Only in December to February do they open up their Global Village- where different countries such as Egypt, UAE, Vietnam, Philippines, etc. display their best products for people to buy and see. 

Dubai Mall in Dubai

 Dubai Mall- one memorable thing  I can say about Dubai Mall (not only is it huge) but its unique. They have a dancing fountain for you to watch at night (for free), then they have a big aquarium and sea life. There are so many things you can see inside the mall aside from the brand name shops. So a MUST place to go.

The Walk in Dubai

Also the WALK, these is where you see lots of expensive cars roaming such as Ferrari, Porche, etc being park and not only that, well known expensive motorcycles. Also lots of restaurant and stalls being displayed.

Dragon Mart in Dubai

 Next stop, the Dragon Mart - 500+ cubicle shop all China made, where you can bargain the trader for a very low price as long as you buy lots of it hehe, but be sure to remember its China made..so the product might not be long lasting like the original one. Lots of imitation of the original design (you can never tell which is original and which is fake) until you use the product coz fake one easily broke while the original are very durable.

Madinat Jumeirah

 

 

Also I suggest you go to Madinat Jumeirah- free entrance..one place you dont want to miss..beautiful architecture, very picturistic so breath taking.

Gold Souke in Dubai

I suggest you go to their Gold Souke (the old and the new) where you can ride their boat for only 1 dirhams going to Old Souke where you can see the Dubai Museum then afterwards go back to the New Souke - these is the only place where you see all stores lining up different golds and open to the public, you will be amaze how much gold can one place have.

Travel in Dubai

I just love travelling. I have so many places that I like to go, so many places I want to see and so many interesting people to meet with different culture, heritage and don’t forget the food, varieties with different presentation and how they present it as well as how it taste when it get to your mouth..simple yummy..

We went to Dubai last Feb. 2010, visited my bros and sister-in- law, and its really really beautiful city. There is no traffic light, the road is very big (4-5 row) and you can see all sorts of high class expensive cars like Ferrari, Porche that they park in the street without fearing it will be stolen. A very safe place.

There malls are super BIG and whats even more unique is inside the mall, there are ski and snow in (Dubai- is a warm city), another one is Big aquarium inside the mall… words cannot express how beautiful the city is.So i have attached some pics that really amaze me so much how beautiful Dubai is.

To go to Dubai, 1st passport, then you need a Dubai visa, you need a relatives or kin or someone who works in Dubai who has 4k Dirhams salary or more in order to sponsor you. Coz in Cebu, if your are applying for tourist, it cost P18K or more to process a Dubai visa, compare to sponsorship, its less than P10k if you get the visa in Dubai. 

As for the ticket, I also ask my brother to buy there in Dubai, luckily he has a friend who work in the Etihad Airways, and if you are a staff in Etihad they give you a compliment ticket so he sell it to my brother for a cheaper price. Compare if you buy in Cebu, it cost a lot..hmm.. USD969 (tax has not yet been included) so thats how expensive it is, for 3months back and forth, no visa included.

When we arrived in Dubai, we stayed in my brother's apartment, so there was not much expenses for lodging and food. I heard from my brother it cost a lot if your staying to Dubai, the expensive is the lodging, the hotels are 5 stars..hmm, there are bedspaces where you stayed in a room where 16-24 ppl inside and you just rent the bed (public), you dont have privacy. Food is not that expensive, any ordinary employee or worker can buy a yogurt, etc. or any necessary needs they can already buy. Their appliances are also unexpensive, bought there my Samsung Corby textpad for around P9k.

What memorable I can say about Dubai is their architecture, its one of kind, very unique, full of history and simple beautiful. You need to stay at least 2 weeks in order to visit all their beautiful spots and really appreciate it. And not only that there are so many places to go, so many spots to be seen that no need to pay for entrance fee. There are simple things in life that are for FREE for us to appreciate its beauty!
