. It is rather like an independent city-state and is the most modern and progressive emirate in theUAE
, developing at an unbelievable pace in the tourist and trade sectors especially.Seasonal climate. The climate here is warm and sunny due to its position near the line of the Tropic of Cancer. In the summer, the weather in Dubai is very hot, dry and humid, with temperatures reaching 45 °C (113 °F) for many days.

A relatively new tourist destination, Dubai was gaining popularity in recent years until the global economic crash of 2008. Dubai is essentially a desert city with superb infrastructure, liberal policies (by regional standards), that became popular for its excellent tourist amenities. It makes a great short break for shopping, partying, sunbathing, fine dining, sporting events, and even a few sinful pleasures. It is a city of superlatives: for the fastest, biggest, tallest, largest and highest, this is the destination.
