What are the visa requirements for entering Dubai?

Before traveling, it is important to familiarize yourself with the visa requirements. Citizens of many countries, including Russia, can obtain a free tourist visa on arrival for up to 90 days. I recommend checking the current information on the official website of the emirate or at the UAE consulate, as rules may change. Upon entry, you will need a valid passport that is valid for at least six months from the date of arrival. At the airport, I was asked to fill out a migration card and go through standard control procedures. Everything went quickly and without complications, and soon I was enjoying the sights of the city.

What is Global Village and what can you see there?

Global Village is a unique cultural and entertainment complex that I would describe as a world fair under the open sky. Located on a vast area, it is divided into pavilions representing different countries and regions of the world. Walking through Global Village, I felt like a traveler crossing borders without visas and passports. Each pavilion offers authentic products, dishes of national cuisine, and entertainment programs. I tasted Turkish sweets, bought Indian spices, and enjoyed African dances. Evening shows, fireworks, and attractions make this place perfect for family recreation.
