About Dubai: Dubai is one of the seven emirates of the United Arab Emirates (UAE). It is located south of the Persian Gulf on the Arabian Peninsula and has the largest population with the second-largest land territory by area of all the emirates, after Abu Dhabi. At present, Dubai has emerged as a global city and a business hub. Oil industry has built economy of Dubai. Football and cricket are the most popular sports in Dubai. Dubai has a rich collection of buildings and structures of various architectural styles. Sunshine, shopping, seaside, sports and safety - five of the key ingredients that have earned Dubai a growing reputation as one of the world's most attractive and rapidly developing leisure destinations.

History of Dubai: The earliest recorded mention of Dubai is in 1095. Since 1799, there has been a settlement known as Dubai town. In the early 19th century, the Al Abu Falasa clan of Bani Yas clan established Dubai, which remained a dependent of Abu Dhabi until 1833. Dubai came under the protection of the United Kingdom by the "Exclusive Agreement" of 1892, in which the UK agreed to protect Dubai against the Ottoman Empire. On 2 December 1971 Dubai, together with Abu Dhabi and five other emirates, formed the United Arab Emirates after the former protector, Britain, left the Persian Gulf in 1971. The Gulf War of 1990 had a huge effect on the city. Later in the 1990s many foreign trading communities—first from Kuwait, during the Gulf War, and later from Bahrain, during the Shia unrest—moved their businesses to Dubai.

Geography of Dubai: Dubai is situated on the Persian Gulf coast of the United Arab Emirates. The emirate of Dubai shares borders with Abu Dhabi in the south, Sharjah in the northeast and the Sultanate of Oman in the southeast. Dubai lies directly within the Arabian Desert. Dubai's landscape is highlighted by sandy desert patterns while gravel deserts dominate much of the southern region of the country. The sand consists mostly of crushed shell and coral and is fine, clean and white. Dubai has no natural river bodies. The sandy desert surrounding the city supports wild grasses and occasional date palms. Dubai has a very hot arid climate. Summers in Dubai are extremely hot, windy and dry, with an average high around 40 °C. Most days are sunny throughout the year.
