Alcohol is available in Dubai, but its consumption is strictly regulated. Beverages can be purchased at licensed restaurants, bars, and nightclubs, usually located in hotels. I enjoyed a cocktail on the terrace of Barasti Beach Bar, where the music and sea views created a special atmosphere. However, drinking alcohol in public places outside designated areas is prohibited. Appearing intoxicated in public can lead to serious consequences. For residents, there is a licensing system for purchasing alcohol at specialized stores. It is important to respect local laws and customs to ensure a safe and enjoyable stay.

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.

Dubai rightfully earns its title as a global shopping haven. Dubai Mall, the world's largest shopping center, offers everything from luxury brands to high street names. I spent an entire day there and felt I only scratched the surface of its offerings. Mall of the Emirates is famous not only for its stores but also for Ski Dubai - an indoor ski resort.
