Tourist Attractions in the UAE

Hello fellow Geography bloggers!  This week I will be posting about the tourist attractions in my country, the UAE.  As you may of picked up earlier, my country is extremely rich from its oil reserves.  This makes it rich in tourist destinations.  The first I will be talking about is the Burj Khalifa.  The Burj Khalifa is currently the tallest freestanding building in the world.  It is 828m tall, and holds countless about its height and attractions.  Another odd thing located in the UAE is a place called Ski Dubai.  Dubai does have a ski hill.  And yes, it is located in a desert.  And the snow there is actualy real snow.  The way they make it is they put tiny water droplets into the air, and because of the lowered temperatures, it freezes and becomes snow.  There is so much information on it, so look it up if you want to learn more.  As you can see, UAE is a tremendously amazing place to visit and tour in, and maybe you would like to visit it sometime.  Signing off,

Sam

  1. Wow that is very cool Sam! That is one thing that I learned new today is that you can put tiny water droplets into the air and of the lowered temperatures it freezes and becomes snow. That is very interesting! i don't know what kind of attractions are in Germany. Maybe that will be my next blog. I can't wait for next weel to come, so I can read your next blog.

  2. I didn’t know they could make ski hills in the desert like that! That’s really interesting! Is the Burj Khalifa the most visited place in Dubai? In France you would think the Eiffel tower is the most visited but its not! The top two places visited in France are: Disneyland and the Louvre. The Eiffel tower is the third most visited! France has many ski hills that the locals like to visit on their vacation weeks too!

  3. Wow that is very cool Sam! It seems like UAE would be a very exciting place to visit! That is very surprising that the ski hill is in the dessert, you would think it would have to be somewhere cold. People travel to Spain mostly for sight seeing, they enjoy the unique Roman Catholic Churches and the big celebrations. Are there a lot of tourist attractions in UAE?
