There is so much to see for everyone; if you want to see the tallest buildings in the World or visit the largest mall on the planet, you only have to see what Dubai can offer you.

Visiting Dubai if disabled

If you visit as a disabled person, as a person of determination, as they say in Dubai, you can see one of the most disabled-friendly cities worldwide. Strong equality laws protecting disabled people and laws against discrimination and accessibility exist. Because of the city’s focus on accessibility, most hotels, beaches and shopping centres are built to be accessible for people of determination. Behind the 21st-century modern city, we can still find some old historic buildings, such as the Al Fahidi Fort. This building is one of the oldest in 1787 and is part of the Dubai Museum.

"Joined up" Dubai transport system
