Friday night drive around the popular districts and skyscrapers of Dubai. Video starts by the 7 star Burj Al Arab, continues north to the downtown skyscraper district (home to the Burj Khalifa, the tallest structure and building in the world), and heads back south to the Dubai Marina. General route: https://goo.gl/maps/W44AAnCFAwb1TceDA . Dubai is a city and emirate in the United Arab Emirates known for luxury shopping, ultramodern architecture and a lively nightlife scene. Burj Khalifa, an 830m-tall tower, dominates the skyscraper-filled skyline. At its foot lies Dubai Fountain, with jets and lights choreographed to music. On artificial islands just offshore is Atlantis, The Palm, a resort with water and marine-animal parks. https://goo.gl/maps/tPLnyMKQeqytsSdm7 Dubai (دبي) is the most populous city in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and the capital of the Emirate of Dubai. Located in the eastern part of the Arabian Peninsula on the coast of the Persian Gulf, Dubai aims to be the business hub of Western Asia. It is also a major global transport hub for passengers and cargo. Oil revenue helped accelerate the development of the city, which was already a major mercantile hub. Dubai's oil output made up 2.1 percent of the Persian Gulf emirate's economy in 2008. A centre for regional and international trade since the early 20th century, Dubai's economy relies on revenues from trade, tourism, aviation, real estate, and financial services. According to government data, the population of Dubai is estimated at around 3,400,800 as of 8 September 2020. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dubai

Been to Dubai and it amazed me to see that there are absolutely no potholes, Dubai is like "we don't do that here"
The skyline is superb. It looks like Miami meets Tokyo but in a century ahead of the rest of the world. I agree with some people saying it's a soulless place but just to think until the early 2000's nobody never ever heard of UAE and now it's this. Incredible job done
5:05 that BMW just spawned🥴
19:33 that scene looks like it comes straight out of sci fi movies.
Starting at 19:15 you'll see this majestic view. No other city on Earth has this. I miss Dubai and UAE as a whole. Good old days. 🇦🇪
One thing I did notice...to be a big city.It's "CLEANER" than any other city I've seen so far👍
I'd been there several years ago, it's an oasis built out of the desert, very impressive. The infrastructures are very new and mordern, buildings are high and roads are broad. Fancy cars can be found everywhere, especially in the parking lots of Emirates mall and Dubai mall, where you can buy almost all kinds of luxury goods. It is really a paradise, but for the rich only.
Always wanted to see a drive in Dubai...Thank you for the surprise!!
Dubai looks like one big mall.
Dubai is definitely on my bucket list of places to go! It looks amazing!
it's literally in the middle of the desert, yet the streets are so clean no sand at all
Earth- "Its a desertified wasteland it cant support life" Oil- "hold my beer"
People who designed the city, “we want nyc skyscrapers and LA freeways”
19:30 This is like driving to the end of the map in games
19:33 looks like an aesthetic edit I would see in slowed/reverb song
19:30 Insane shot
Lived there for 9 years..and was literally naming almost all the areas as the car sailed though.. its is absolutely priceless.. my first home away from home! Dubai will always hold a special place in my ❤
Visited Dubai last year and i really enjoyed it. The city at night looks so futuristic and the architecture is insane !! Undoubtedly one of the best place in the world.
This is oddly so peaceful
Dubai used to be my home from 1999 to 2012. I am so pleased to have experienced the old Dubai, when people knew each other and there was still a bit of arabic desert and culture
