These Things You'll Only Find in Dubai

Dubai is truly a city built on dreams. Everything is bigger, better, tastier, more fun, and covered in gold. If you've ever wanted to live like a king for a day, Dubai is the place you should visit...

This hotel is covered with an absurd amount of gold leaf. The interior of the hotel has 1,790 square meters worth of 24-carat gold plated all over it. Imagine the walls being covered in 46,265 Mona Lisa's worth of gold. 

Fashion is Huge

Dubai is quickly making a name for themselves on the world stage, especially since their culture is so different from the rest of the fashion Meccas.
