Dubai Creek, the historical center of Dubai's history, has an unparalleled atmosphere. Walking along the riverbank, listening to the gentle waves and the calls of the vendors in the markets, the modern skyscrapers standing next to the ancient markets create a striking contrast. It's often referred to as the "real Dubai", where you can find various traditional souks on both sides of the river: the Gold Souk, Textile Souk, and Spice Souk. Taking a traditional wooden sailboat Abra across the Dubai Creek for 1 AED is one of the most worthwhile experiences in Dubai. Watching the sunset over the sea, witnessing the loading and unloading of various goods on large wooden cargo ships coming from the Indian Ocean, and hearing the call to prayer from the mosques, you can experience a completely different Dubai.

ICE LAND WATER PARK
ICE LAND is a water theme park with the theme of penguins and glaciers. The park has multiple water activities and entertainment facilities, and is an affordable water entertainment destination outside of Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Although I have not been there personally, the park's ability to provide a cool experience in a desert country, contrasted with the hot weather, seems particularly interesting. My colleague, who has been there, was deeply impressed and highly fond of it.

The Al Ain National Museum in the UAE is the country's oldest museum, and compared to museums in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, it is more worth a visit.

The museum is divided into two parts, namely national history and archaeology.

"Watch the 'Water Dance' at the Dubai Fountains, an opportunity available every day. The fountain, located at the base of the Burj Khalifa, boasts the world's largest choreographed fountain system.
