    I've been to Dubai late 2019. It's magic, I felt great walking in the streets and watching the skyscrappers, I do love architecture and visiting the Burj Khalifa was a dream! I loved every minute at the city. People are welcoming, it's easy to move around, we definitely feel very safe, the prices are good, the food is great, lots of things to do. I want to visit Dubai again very soon...

There's no crime that we have seen and the place is just full of wonders. Burj Khalifa, Dubai Fountain, Jumeirah Beach, the shopping Malls and many more things too. If you haven't been I urge you to do so.

And it's pretty hot here too, but Dubai has ar conditioning everywhere, we don't here! I'd love to visit the UK someday, it's in my bucket list.

    It's grown out of all proportion since the 1990s, but it's a very safe place to live. Its growth since then is phenomenal. Prior to this, it was quite an intimate place where nearly every ex-pat knew nearly everyone, and where to meet up. I can appreciate its development, but too congested for me now. Great place to live and work in the '80s, but time doesn't stop still and today it's called progress. Great video!

    Very good video and a joy to watch. Dubai splits the western minds around the world. Living here for almost a year after 11years in London I can say I'm happier and more optimistic here than I would be in Europe at this time. For people from Asia, Dubai seems to be the number 1 place to move to (leaving the Japanese out of this). Growth is here and if you want to be where growth is you'll have to learn to look East, whether you want to accept this or not.

      You're right. Dubbing Dubai as city of the future before any other is very reasonable to say. America built cities of the future at one time too. And in parts they and all other first world countries make sure that the level of development in general stays at a top level. For now, Dubai and the middle East are pushing boundaries and it will be seen how it may impact the region and global economies. In any case, the development here will prove fruitful in one way or another.

    Thank you for this wonderful video. It is a common mistake that Dubai was built because of oil, but this is not true. Many countries own a lot of oil, such as Iraq, Venezuela, and Nigeria, and they have not achieved a quarter of what Dubai, the Emirates and the Gulf countries have achieved. The real secret lies in our leaders and their keenness to build their cities and comfort their people.

    I’ve been to Dubai a few times. It’s a strange place - very glitzy in places, still unfinished, and in some ways quite awkward - hard to get around, because it’s very spread out. I think that in fact about 15% of the population are Emiratis, so 85% non-Emiratis - some of those have been living in Dubai & the UAE for a couple of generations; it’s very hard to get Emirati citizenship. Many of the expatriates are also Muslim, so Islam is, I think, a unifying factor for the majority of those living there - maybe two-thirds?
    Beneath the glamour and the glitz is a different story - lots of low-paid workers, with very few rights. And the plight of the manual labourers who are building the skyscrapers can be truly dreadful. So a good place to visit, but you should always be aware of the full picture.

    Dubai is hell in Summer, but is cold or comfortable during November to May. It is so fun to be in Dubai during its winter to early spring season.
    However, Dubai needs to review their public transport. Most of the metros and buses are inefficient. It’s okay to go for a long walk transfer stops during the cold season but it’s freaking hell during the hot seasons. They should add more trains and stations like Singapore and HongKong. If you’re a tourist, you’ll find yourself spending a lot on taxis.
    Things I hate in Dubai
    Dubai should also encourage good hygiene to some of its residents. Riding a metro during summer is awful, like the train smells like all body odors of the world combined.😂😂 Let’s not talk about waste segregation which is almost absent in Dubai. People use tons of plastics for a city that is trying to lead Sustainability efforts. They should borrow some ideas from Singapore. Also, the drainage system which is almost non-existent. Just a mild rain would make all the roads flooded. Also, the housing is kinda fucked up and needed some regulation. The rent is soaring. Almost half of your salary now goes to rent.
    What I love with Dubai
    Food is cheap here (for a first-world country standard) I mean, there are cheap options everywhere. Lots of selections from Arabic to Indian to Chinese and South East Asian cuisine. Grocery price are reasonable. Sometimes goods here are cheaper than supermarkets in third world countries.
    All the nationalities here are kind to each other. Yes, there are some classism happening, but racism tendencies are rare. Everyone knows how to tolerate each others religion, belief, and culture. You can also easily get flights here from around the Globe. Low crimerate, and of course NO Income TAXES!

    Dubai is an fascinating city that shows that everything is possible. The only problem that I face when I was there is that you need a car to go everywhere cause everything is far away and is not a very walkable city. If they are able to fix that, I’m sure it will become one of the best cities in the world to live!

    Pros: Top facilities, and very safe.
    Cons: Hot weather, and no taxi in the afternoon.

    Loved the clip shame we didn't have access to that before we got down there....we were bouncing from one revelation to another and our fundamentally British consciousness a little ruffled (especially by Arab Spring and the piracy to the south) it's definitely an exciting and dynamic region.A lot of Dubai genuinely loves Sheikh Mohammed (including me) alas I managed only 3 years there,but it was action packed.I think some our more sensible youth should head there as it really is a land of opportunity.....off you go and turn yourself into something worthy.Oh one last thing,in the cultural clash don't be tempted to roll over Arabic rules or customs,it's a small price but non observance of local law comes at your own peril.Bon voyage!

    Dubai is something only the shallow would admire. If development for you is concrete jungles, a lot of lights and glass then Dubai is your place. It has no soul and never will. It's a dictator's amusement park. A city functioning for the whims and desires of one family. And if you don't praise them you'll see how modern & progressive their response will be!

    The movie and the content are good, and I showed it at a conference. No, I did not notice the presence of the map that harms and insults our countries, the Arab Gulf countries. This is a fact, even if you or you wrote that the Persian Gulf is a disaster that needs to be corrected and restored.

    Perhaps you should have also mentioned how one can’t get a citizenship there although it’s a diverse international city??

    • @UrbanStories
      @UrbanStories  4 года назад +5

      Thanks for the comment. Citizenship is a governmental policy that doesn’t really relate to the city itself and it’s urban design and history, that’s why we don’t cover those aspects here.

    Dubai succeeded the same way Hong Kong did: low taxes and lots of freedom with the government out of the way. Also helps to pay off the Western media.
