Dubai Dubai, what else can you do?

Dubai’s new landmark reappeared. The Dubai Frame, officially opened this year, is about 150 meters high and 93 meters wide. It is gold-plated and is said to “frame all of Dubai’s landmarks.”

At this moment I am standing on the 124th floor of the Burj Khalifa. The surrounding glass curtain wall can give people a basic view of Dubai. This is a veritable desert city. Under the hot temperatures, the blue sea does not bring about high visibility even though it is also on the coast.
This is Dubai.
Through the glass, the city seems to be separated by a layer of yarn. The foot is busy and the green is still small. However, skyscrapers are indeed alive and there is indeed a continuous sand dune not far away… This extreme weather is very anxious for Tomoko. The Department of “Mission Impossible 4” has to climb the tower and rush to “swallow” sand. It is not easy to use life for the box office. Is it worth it?
The answer, of course, is worth it. In 2012, the Burj Khalifa was also known and relished as the movie successfully sprinted $1 billion at the box office.

Although the film was actually shot at a height of 523 meters, human beings could not stop Attogo’s boldness. On the other hand, mankind cannot stop the madness pursued by the Burj Khalifa. This towering building allows the Burj Khalifa to span several climatic zones. It is said that the temperature difference between the bottom and top floors can reach 10 °C.
However, in this weather, 40 °C and 50 °C I can not tell the difference, I just felt the sun shining, bright eyes open. This reminds me of Las Vegas, which is also a city in the desert, and a place with a variety of weird landmarks. On the other hand, Las Vegas is a past tenure. When you want to know how much humanity has the determination and imagination to build a skyscraper, you have to go to Dubai.
It is said that a quarter of the cranes in the world are concentrated in Dubai, and at least more than 150 skyscrapers with a height of more than 150 meters are currently built in Dubai. In the construction industry there is even the saying that “Dubai is the experimental field of all architects.”

Here, all kinds of fantastic buildings can be realized. In terms of the “highest”, in order to achieve the “most” title, there are inevitably some hands and feet. The most common method used by architects is to extend indefinitely on the spire or antenna. As a result, the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat (CTBUH) has a problem with the authority that has assessed the world’s tallest building: How can we measure it to be the net height of the building? To know that the Guangzhou TV Tower “Little Waist” is 610 meters, in fact, the tower height is 454 meters, and the antenna height is 156 meters.
However, the completion of Burj Dubai did not suspense to claim the title of “the tallest building”. The height of 828 meters was enough to stand out from the crowd. In the six years after the completion of 2009, this record was maintained and there was nowhere in it. The “AT THE TOP” that is not there also tells you its status.
If you can afford 2.5 times the price (300 dirhams, equivalent to about RMB 500), you can also climb to the “AT THE TOP SKY” on the 148th floor. The number of visitors is half, and there is a glass of champagne or drink. However, people who really can afford to spend money naturally care about it. They just want to reach the highest place, but it is second only to feel it.
Ted didn’t sell anything. I took a few moments to check out 39 dirhams and bought 3 silver bottle openers. It was the shape of the Burj Khalifa which read “AT THE TOP.”

From Burj Khalifa, it is actually Dubai Mall, the world’s largest shopping mall.
How big can it be?

#Dubai Mall
In simple terms, it is to get off at Financial Centre Road, enter the shopping center from the East Gate, go through countless shops and pass the Dubai Aquarium and Discovery Centre. This is a non-stop 20-minute walk to Ha. Lifa Tower ticket office distance. When you arrive tired and squat, instead of ascending, it’s better to rest.
This day is not a holiday and the mall is still very lively.

In Dubai, there are many exceptions in the Islamic world. For example, you can purchase a lottery ticket worth $1 million at the airport; for example, locals who are clubbing in hotels actually drink alcoholic beverages; for example, you are not necessarily in Dubai. They may come from the Philippines, Kazakhstan, India, China or Lebanon. So what you hear is not necessarily Arabic. They may just communicate in their own home language.
One common point is that English is universal as long as it is in a foreign or higher class place. The Dubai government encourages local people to study abroad and also welcomes foreign students to study in Dubai. For Dubai, the exchange of talents is important, and it can also serve the upcoming Expo 2020.

At present, Dubai has a population of 5 million, of which the population of Dubai is only 1 million and 80% are foreigners. It is said that this figure can reach 90% when Dubai’s economy is most brilliant. In our view, Dubai locals were born with a golden key. “89 people work for a single person.” They are undoubtedly the happiest people on earth.
Apart from the locals, the resident foreign population can be divided into several categories. The higher vocational people are mostly white people in Europe and the United States. They have rich resources and connections to build various trade and business cooperation, and they can also lead wealthy business in Dubai. life.
Then there are people in Oceania and Eastern European countries. The lowest income is the service industry and construction workers, they are mostly from Pakistan, India, Lebanon and other countries. In recent years, China’s economy has soared and is highly valued by the UAE countries. Many places have Chinese signs, and the shopping slogan of “Exemption for the whole city” is also attracting more and more Chinese people. Our guide Najjad said.

“Studying here, are you happy?” I asked my partner Chloe. She has just graduated and is currently doing market research work on a domestic website.
“But I’m not used to eating here.”
She may be referring to the local traditional diet. Like the perfumes they squirted, the traditional restaurants in the Middle East are quite tasteful. After cucumbers, mint leaves, olives and other fresh salads without refreshing salad dressing, yoghurt with cumin and fennel taste will be brought up. .

Of course, you don’t know if you are in a traditional restaurant until you see Kebab or Tikka in the menu.
In a nutshell, Kebab is a barbecue. The cured meat pieces that are baked out of skewers are traditional Arabic and Indo-Pakistan food, and Tikka is a barbecued meat.
Chloe doesn’t like it, but there are also people who like to eat. Instead of eating, I prefer to watch the people who ate here — I used to think that those veiled women would use a fork to mouth and mouth. Here, I see the women who have taken the yarn. They talk loudly, eat big meat, and slam their children who are not eating. The Bedouins in the desert are known for their boldness, and this moment is a realization.

Doing business worldwide
Here, a variety of novel and eccentric buildings have become the focus of urban marketing. Because of this, Dubai has also become a new tourist city.
Known as the “Hotel of Seven Stars,” the Berkshire Hotel has been built for more than 10 years, but it has not prevented it from becoming Dubai’s largest landmark. Its reputation has even surpassed that of the Burj Khalifa.
And people are coming here to punch cards. If they are valiant, they will spend 20,000 yuan for two nights; if they want to pay attention to the sentiment, they must wait at least two weeks in advance to book a dinner for two people on the sea floor restaurant, plus at least 6,000 yuan for drinks. It is impossible to make pure sightseeing.

Burj Al Arab
However, people who really play will choose quieter top-floor restaurants. Here, you can see Palm Island. The hotel staff will tell you which tycoon bought a villa.
On the side of Dubai Bay, the integrated resort “The Beach” has just completed. It boasts incomparable sea views and fine white sands, backed by a variety of property-style apartments and hotels. Not far away, the containers are everywhere, and the port of Dubai is one of the busiest cargo terminals in the world.
People sunbathing here, wearing bikinis or beach pants, looking across the various operating crane booms, enjoying the sun, and doing business around the world.

The Beach
Najjad said, “We do business with Asian countries in the morning and we deal with European and American countries in the afternoon.” Dubai, which is 4 hours slower than China, is just like this. This oil-starting city, which now contributes to Dubai’s GDP, is only 6%.
Dubai is developing everything except oil. I remember reading a report earlier that there are designers who are building a floating floating island and have now come true.

According to reports, this “Venice of Venice” will be located on the “World Island” 4 kilometers outside the coast of Dubai and will bring an authentic Venice experience to the Middle East. This unique floating resort accommodates up to 3,000 guests per day.
For some reason, I remembered Sheikh Rashid, the dying prince.
