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.
