Dubai is a city of contrasts, where the old and new makes it a mysterious exciting place to it’s visitors. It is a very welcoming city and increasingly becoming very well known worldwide. Some people believe “Dubai’ is a shorter form of the word “Daba” meaning a prospering or raveling market. It has several names such as the City of Gold because of its famed Gold Market, and The City that Cares since the merchants set aside money from its promotions for charities.. |

Ras Al Khaimah: It’s name means ‘head of the tent’. I did a little research and found out that ‘Al Khaimah’ (the tent) also means a raveli shelter symbolizing the traditional arab friendship and hospitality. This Emirate is one of the most natural beautiful spots in the country. It is surrounded by sea, desert and mountains. It is known for its camping grounds when the weather is pleasant, natural water springs where there are separate facilities for men and women to bathe in its natural warm waters. The springs are located next to the mountains In Sh’am. There are several very interesting archaeological sites such as The Queen of Sheba’s Palace in the Shimal to the north. |
