Go to question pageDubai aspires to be the most technologically advanced city in the world. Smart Dubai is an initiative aimed at integrating innovations into everyday life. I experienced this firsthand when I used the driverless metro and paid for my journey with a single Nol Card, which also works on buses and trams. The Museum of the Future, which opened in 2022, showcases the latest advancements in artificial intelligence, robotics, and space technology. The city is also actively implementing blockchain in government services and plans to shift all transactions into a digital format. Walking through the Dubai International Financial Centre, I felt the pulse of innovation and ambition.
Go to question pageAt the foot of the Burj Khalifa, in the heart of the city, lies the Dubai Fountain, the largest choreographic fountain in the world. Imagine: evening comes, and suddenly the dark surface of the lake comes to life with thousands of jets of water soaring to a height of 150 meters. To the beat of the music — from classical Arabic melodies to modern world hits — the water dances, changing colors and shapes. I stood among the mesmerized crowd, feeling the cool spray on my face and forgetting about the time. This show repeats every half hour, and each time it seems unique. Nearby there are cozy restaurants and cafes where you can enjoy the view with a cup of tea or something stronger.
