As recently as the 1960s Dubai was a relatively insignificant Bedouin settlement, but thanks to oil it is now a global city of superlatives: the world's tallest building, its second-largest shopping mall, and an enormous artificial waterfront. Marco Polo will see you safely to all the attractions of the city, the second largest of the Emirates. Alongside the new, modern Dubai you'll find plenty of the original town in the traditional bazaars, the souks or in the Dubai Museum... This is Dubai!
