Hi Friends,

Emaar is one of the biggest property developers in Dubai, UAE. Other than them I could see DAMAC, Meraas, and DP Group and there must be many more which I was not able to recognize or recall in my short 96 hours trip in Dubai. 

Dubai Marina Mall is full of shops with all your favorite retailers trading throughout the day. I didn't enter any of the shops as shopping was not on my agenda and seeing the place was the top priority. And I didn't find the price difference too much so as to buy further as my bags were already overflooded with the things bought from India already. 

The area is surrounded by many hotels and in this picture, it's Crown Plaza which really became visible due to this white mesh. The one thing I observed in my trip is that even the grills outside homes or shopping places parking area it's all different designs and no design gets repeated in the same area. 

The lights in the night are enough to make your walk easy and make you feel like a great flashing city vibrating with energy, music, and vibes. It feels so great to see day in the night but the only problem is that you need to close your curtains as I lived on 38th floor in Airbnb apartment and it was difficult to sleep with windows open due to neon lights. 

The river near the buildings makes it always look great for morning and evening walks. I saw a lot of people running and jogging in the morning and evenings. The city is well connected with trams, buses, tubes and multiple sources of public transports. 

I missed traveling in the ferry which I generally always makes a point as it gives a great angle from the mid of the river for taking the shores photos. You need to be really rich to enjoy all the luxuries in Dubai but you can also survive as there are restaurants and takeaways offering a full-fledged meal in around AED12-17 which is enough to make your tummy full. Also, Zomato Dubai offers a lot of offers to get your food delivered at home and it will save on the parking that you need to pay everywhere you park your car. More on the other stories later in the series!!!

#TheLifesWayCaptures - Dubai Marina Walk #Dubai #UAE - #PhotoReviews

Hi Friends,

Dubai is full of skyscrapers and the first day we went around our Airbnb flat walking in and around Dubai Marina Mall and Marina Walk. It felt so great to go on an evening walk in the main district of Dubai as we generally don't walk here in Johannesburg unless it's a race event. 

Dubai has a walkway built all around the roads in this Emaar Properties area. The people stop their cars in case you are crossing the road even when the lights are green for the vehicles. This is a high-level behavior for the walkers which I only saw in Singapore long ago in 2006.

It reminded me of the walk around the Thames river when I used to work in Red Lion Court in Southwark near London Bridge, London, UK. There are restaurants and eateries around the walk and it totally felt European. The ferries go from here till the Burj Khalifa and you can book a tour that is available twice a day.

There are ferries, personal ships, and yachts going around the pier. It really brings you to a city which has been made keeping the future proof and made smart to the smartest. There is a lot of construction going on in and around the area and it keeps growing with time.

The buildings all around the yachts reminded me of the Canary Wharf and St Katharine Docks Marina which is very near to the Tower of London. These photos are clicked from the Emaar Marina Mall food court and the walk around the same.

Emaar Marina Mall is an awesome mall and we had a Vegetarian Paneer Pizza at the Pizza Hut which was not up to our expectations from the Pizza Hut franchise. But as it might be the local taste hence you can't say anything but after eating at the Pizza Hut in India at Ansal Mall, Gurugram you can't compare anything as the taste is superb. 

Namaste!!!
