Moving to Dubai?

Notorious for its outrageous displays of wealth and the insalubrious conditions in which its foreign labourers build its iconic landmarks, Dubai is bigger, brasher and bolder than any other Arab city. Very little is known about its pre-Islamic settlement, although remains of ancient trading posts have been found in and around the municipality and the earliest-recorded mention of it dates to 1095. In the fifteenth century it was known to Venetian traders as a pearling centre – a reputation which it kept until the 1930s when the industry was damaged irreparably by the Great Depression – but the town was not documented until 1799 when the Bani Yas clan established a fort there.

The Al Maktoum dynasty took over Dubai in 1833 and the city came under the protection of the British in 1892. Despite the great fire of 1894, which saw the destruction of most of the buildings in the city, traders continued to come to Dubai, attracted by its prime position on the Persian Gulf. Abu Dhabi has long been a rival – skirmishes and border disputes continued even after the inception of the United Arab Emirates in 1971 until a formal compromise was agreed in 1979. Conflict in the Middle East brought refugees from around the region to the city, many of whom were very wealthy; the relative stability meant that this became a centre of investment, which in turn led to the ostentation that is now infamous.

Situated in the Arabian Desert, Dubai has a hot arid climate, with minimal rainfall and average temperatures ranging from 24º to 42º. The landscapes around the city are generally ignored in favour of the luxury within, but those who venture out will find shifting white sands made of crushed shell and coral, giving way to the iron oxide-tinged Western Hajar Mountains to the east and a vast sea of sand dunes to the south. Hyenas, caracals, desert foxes, falcons and Arabian oryxes are all spotted regularly. For a taste, albeit manufactured, of traditional life, head to the Heritage Village, where local Emiratis take joy in their songs, dance and traditions, or spend a few hours by the creek, watching the dhow (traditional wooden boat) traffic and the abras weave along the waterway.

This is a city of extremes: the Barj Dubai is the tallest man-made structure in the world; the Dubai Marina is the second largest in the world; the Burj Al ArabHotel is the only 7 star hotel in the world, and the first hotel built in the sea with three floors below the water level. It is even taking over the world of sport: the International Cricket Council moved its headquarters from London to Dubai in 2005, while the Dubai Desert Classic Golf Tournament attracts top players from around the world. More typical, perhaps, is the Dubai World Cup, an annual race for thoroughbred horses which exemplifies the lure of the place. Visitors come here not to bargain for carpets in the traditional souks but to gaze on the follies of the superrich. The credit crunch has taken its toll: The World, a series of manmade islands shaped like a map of the earth and designed to be inhabited by celebrities, remains uninhabited and all works have stopped. Nonetheless, as long as there is rampant consumerism, Dubai will flourish, confident in its glitzy allure.
