Besides Burj Khalifa, what other skyscrapers are worth seeing?

Dubai is renowned for its unique skyline, and besides the Burj Khalifa, there are many other impressive skyscrapers. The Burj Al Arab is a luxurious hotel shaped like a sail, standing on an artificial island. I couldn’t miss the opportunity to have a cup of tea there while enjoying the sea views. The Emirates Towers are two elegant skyscrapers reflecting sunlight and symbolizing the city’s business prowess. The Cayan Tower, also known as the “twisted tower,” rotates 90 degrees from base to top, creating a stunning visual effect. Walking along Dubai Marina, I was amazed by the architectural diversity and boldness of the design solutions.

What currency is used in Dubai and where is the best place to exchange money?

In Dubai, the UAE Dirham (AED) is used. The exchange rate is usually stable against the US dollar: 1 dollar ≈ 3.67 dirhams. You can exchange currency at the airport, banks, exchange offices and shopping malls. I have noticed that exchange rates in the city are often more profitable than at the airport or hotels. ATMs are ubiquitous, and you can withdraw cash from international cards, but pay attention to the possible fees of your bank. Many places accept credit cards, but it is always useful to have some cash with you for small expenses, especially in markets or small cafes.
