Dubai continues to strengthen its position as a prominent business and tourism destination, with its real estate projects contributing to transforming the emirate into a modern global city for the 21st century.

According to Forbes, Dubai is a global model for sustainable construction and modern architecture, adopting advanced technology principles to raise the standard of living without harming the local ecosystem.

These environmentally friendly practices have contributed to strengthening Dubai’s position as a sustainable city that is striving to achieve its ambitious goal of achieving zero carbon emissions by 2050, according to the magazine.

Dubai has also become a thriving global city in recent decades, attracting international talents.

Dubai has won several awards as the best global destination, including the TripAdvisor Traveller’s Choice Awards for the best destinations, where it was the first city to win this honour for three consecutive years. It has also been named the world’s best city to move to by Remitly, topped the list of best cities for remote workers by Savills, and ranked the second-best city by Euromonitor International.

In 2023, Dubai welcomed over 17 million travellers, reflecting the diversity of the city’s hospitality landscape. Dubai’s hotel sector is incredibly diverse, with over 820 properties and 150,000 rooms catering to all travelers’ needs, from luxury properties and beachfront views to desert adventures and all-inclusive experiences. The city boasts many options to suit all tastes, from modern travel trends such as eco-tourism to multi-generational and solo travel.

Once a small fishing village on the Arabian Gulf, Dubai is now a beacon of global diversity, home to over 200 nationalities and offering a diverse and distinctive experience for all visitors. Dubai also continues to amaze the world with its iconic landmarks and hospitality excellence, making it one of the most visited cities in the world.
