What is Dubai's role in international trade?

Dubai has historically been an important trading port due to its advantageous location between East and West. Today, Jebel Ali Port is the largest port in the Middle East and one of the busiest in the world. I visited Jebel Ali Free Zone (JAFZA), an economic zone that attracts thousands of international companies due to its favorable tax conditions and simplified business procedures. Dubai Airport also plays a key role, being one of the main transit hubs for cargo and passenger transportation. The city is actively investing in infrastructure and technology, striving to simplify logistics and trading operations. Walking through the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC), I felt the dynamism of the financial sector, which supports trade relations with over 200 countries.

What national holidays are celebrated in Dubai?

Dubai celebrates both religious and national holidays. The UAE National Day, celebrated on December 2nd, is a time of festivities, parades, and fireworks. The city is adorned with flags and lights, and I felt a special atmosphere of unity and pride among the residents. Ramadan is a holy month for Muslims, characterized by fasting and prayers. During this time, many restaurants and cafes are closed during the day but open in the evening for Iftar, the breaking of the fast after sunset.

Which areas of Dubai are the most interesting to visit?

Dubai is a city of contrasts, and each of its districts has a special character. Dubai Marina is a modern oasis with skyscrapers, yachts and a promenade ideal for evening walks. Here I felt like I was in the center of a cosmopolitan world where cultures and languages meet. Deira is the opposite of Marina, an old shopping district with narrow streets and markets. Wandering through the gold market, I was amazed at the brilliance and abundance of jewelry, and at the spice market, the aromas of cinnamon, saffron and cardamom turned my head. Al Fahidi is a historic district with traditional architecture, where you can feel the spirit of old Dubai. Walking through its quiet streets, I found art galleries, museums and cozy courtyards with fountains.
