UNITED ARAB EMIRATES
DATE(S) VISITED
2019 JULY
A selection of 46 photographs and 3 videos (out of 114) taken on my visit to Dubai in the United Arab Emirates. Unusually I travelled with others - a group of Leeds United fans. I organised this trip for a number of fellow fans who wanted to travel to Australia to watch a couple of pre-season games in Perth and Sydney - but we had several stopovers between the UK and Australia. Please note that the photographs are as originally taken and not enhanced by any means. I did not produce a blog whilst in UAE.
My thoughts: Dubai is a busy, noisy, vibrant city - combining both the arab and western cultures and well worth a visit. The city is a mix of old areas and futuristic concepts.

My thoughts: Dubai is a fascinating city - and houses the worlds tallest building. A very different culture to western cultures. More pictures of UAE can be found in my previous visits to the country. [Please click on the thumbnail images to enlarge.

A selection of 24 photographs and 1 video (out of 118) taken on my short stay in Dubai in March 2011. The pictures are mainly around the Burj Khalifa (the tallest building in the world) Please note that the photographs are as originally taken and not enhanced by any means. I did not produce a blog on this trip.
My thoughts: A big city with lots to see and do. Some very modern and some older charm. The Burj Khalifa is a must - even if to say you have been up the worlds tallest building!
