The Enchanted ‘UTOPIA’ of Dubai

‘GLOBAL VILLAGE’ IS A WORLD EXCURSION IN JUST 4$ ‘

Wondering around the city of possibilities, I found a utopia like no other. In competition with hundreds of prime attractions in Dubai. The global village is one magical place full of stunning attractions.

Looking at the entrance gates, I had only one thing on my mind “Is there heaven behind these gates”. Perhaps it is a unique cloud nine on Earth. The giant entry gates have amazing artistic decor, fascinating lights, a glorifying impact, and a futuristic entry system. I think I was witnessing more colors than I ever counted in existence. Certainly, entering this heavenly place “Rainbow” can educate itself better about the colors.

There is a rare fragrance in the air, a novel feel because we have just arrived at the world of happiness. Smiles all around, the people, the flamboyant business kiosks, amusing performing artists, much more than my imagination predicted at this place. I became a part of the happiness club along with thousands of people smiling at each other. Children laughing and enjoying themself everywhere. Few kids running around, a little girl trying her hand at an Ice cream, a few Ladies at a Hot Custard kiosk, people around the magical fountains, a store men busy in dalliance of Arabic fragrances, and a lot more than can be hardly described in words. The point is you will not see a sad face in the global village.

I reached Europe and after spending some time I took the travel to America right next to it with too much available to shop here. I decided to walk myself to Japan which was not as far from the global village, as if I had traveled to the east from America to Japan. But the best destination during my tour by far was Iran. Giant ancient Persian kings, all standing in line, to welcome me or just express their might and fury at me, I can only wonder. I feel like I am in a Persian castle with torches burning on the walls and stores filled with “Zafran” something more expensive than silver and used in tea and other foods. 

I thought to take an Iranian carpet in the hope that by paying around 20,000$ it could at least help me fly around the global village like “Aladdin”, but it was not. I was just planning to land in India but I just got the sight of Africa. Probably the richest place to visit. Large face masks, traditional African accessories. Loving people. Passionate about everything, they are probably the freshest people in this arena. On average, each country’s pavilion is large enough to find out about their culture, trade, and traditions.

Now I was tired and I thought I had seen the place thoroughly. But my friend who hosted me at Global Village told me that I have just been through five to ten percent of the village only. This came to me as an exaggeration. If all this is not even ten percent so what kind of world we are in right now? The answer is the most distinct one. Because there were still ninety percent of countries I did not visit. There were several amazing restaurants providing cuisines of various countries of the world. There is an incredible amusement park. After knowing about all the attractions I thought that now there could not be anything more unique that can surprise me more, and I am already stunned by what this place has to offer. But to add to the wonders, I just found a floating boat market. A full street with floating boats providing goods and foodstuff of various origins. Exceptional people with an exclusive way of preparing food and selling goods. Remember we are in the middle of the desert and we are already shocked by what we have seen and then you find a floating market, full of boats, actively running their trade affairs.

There is plenty more to write about this place. But I can only say there is no other attraction in Dubai like the Global Village. You can spend the whole day, even several days and you will still have a lot more to explore here. It is a never-ending entertainment!
