Global village, Dubai, post - one


Dubai global village!
Every year the number of countries having pavilions here is increasing. No doubt, this gathering is getting better and better as years go by.

This time of the year is a festive season in Dubai. Coupled with Dubai shopping festival (DSF) there is glitter and bling everywhere in Dubai. Mesmerizing Dubai!
           


This is a unique opportunity to witness the culture, products, and people from different parts of the world without going there.
          


It actually is a vast venue with eateries, entertainment, fireworks and the like! There is a cultural stage here where artists from different countries showcase their unique cultural talents.
      
Photography, when twilight is in full swing is a wonderful thing!




 
There is an artificial canal where you can ride on traditional boats. There are stage shows, stunt shows, street shows, cultural shows, and concerts.


       
The exhibits are simply awesome! Not a moment of boredom. The price is also reasonable,

     


You will be able to buy any type of middle eastern perfumes here. Feeling lucky...well...there are lucky draws too and the winner gets sackloads of money, it is Dubai, you know!

These pictures were taken the last time I visited there in 2012.

The Global village, Dubai - an amazing video!


I have blogged a lot before about the Dubai Global village and the Dubai Shopping Festival. While going through my old collections I noticed these videos that were recorded while I visited a while ago. So I thought of uploading these amazing videos.

Dubai shopping festival takes place in the months of January - February every year. The Dubai Global village is a popular attraction in Dubai, UAE. During the time of the festival, the place will be vibrant with cultural shows, fireworks, etc. filled with shopping pavilions of many countries in the world.

This year it will remain open until April 11. Three more days left😊

Awesome Dubai; amazing festival!

Watch these videos too.
