How safe is it to walk around Dubai at night?
Dubai is considered one of the safest cities in the world. I often walked the streets late at night and never felt threatened or uncomfortable. The high level of security is ensured by strict laws and the efficient work of the police. Nevertheless, as in any city, it is advisable to follow basic precautions: do not leave belongings unattended, be vigilant in crowded places, and avoid unlit or deserted areas. The general atmosphere of friendliness and order makes night walks in Dubai pleasant and safe.

Dubai attracts businesses and investors due to the absence of personal income tax and corporate tax for most companies. This makes the city appealing to professionals and entrepreneurs. I spoke with expats who noted that the lack of income tax allows them to keep more of their earnings. However, since 2018, a 5% VAT (Value Added Tax) has been introduced on most goods and services. This step is aimed at diversifying government revenue. The overall tax system is transparent and streamlined, which facilitates doing business and stimulates economic activity.

It is important to respect nature and not disturb the animals. Aquariums, such as Dubai Aquarium & Underwater Zoo, allow you to get acquainted with marine fauna in a safe environment.

Go to question pageDubai Marina is a 3-kilometer long artificial canal, surrounded by skyscrapers and residential complexes. Walking along the Marina Walk, I felt like I was in the center of a modern metropolis, where life is bustling around the clock. Here you can see luxury yachts moored at the docks and even rent one for a sea voyage. In the evening, Marina transforms into a lively district with many restaurants, cafes, and shops. I enjoyed dinner at one of the restaurants overlooking the water, watching the city reflected in the calm surface of the canal. For those who love adventure, there is an opportunity to climb the "Ain Dubai", the largest Ferris wheel in the world, located on Bluewaters Island next to the Marina.
