This book is a journey into Dubai's past, present, and future. It is the story of a place where "dreams rise from the desert sands and touch the sky". You will discover the tale of a people who "turned sand into gold, tradition into modernity, and challenges into opportunities". The book explores the city's transformation from a "modest fishing and trading village" to one of the most "dazzling urban landscapes on Earth". It uncovers the roots of Bedouin heritage, architectural wonders like the Burj Khalifa and Burj Al Arab, and the "futuristic visions that are already shaping tomorrow". Beyond the record-breaking attractions and luxury, the book reveals the hidden stories and local soul of Dubai.
