Look at all those construction cranes!

Some of these pictures look so fake, they look like renderings.

I like those shiny glass skyscrapers, the Khalid Al Attar Tower is very interesting.

Arbift looks better at night than day.

Nice camel statue too!

You've shown Dubai like I bet most people have never seen it, great job.

The mosques have interesting architecture, I espcially like the top facade of this one:



Like the last pic too.
