Dubai - The Most Wondrous City in the World

Who doesn’t know about Dubai? When it comes to luxury, Dubai is one of the bests. If you look 200 years back from now, you will see that the city did exist then, but the landscape happened to be an uninhabitable desert. The lifeline was just a stream of water and camel was the only way of transportation there. Then in the 19th century, Dubai finally became able to make buzz around the globe. It was discovered broadly by the travelers passing by.
