Monuments
a few weeks ago, my younger brother, who is not so young anymore, went to dubai, n he asked me what do you want me to get you from there? and i thought to myself a landmark or monument would be nice to add to my collection. But whats dubai's landmark??
Kuwait its the towers, paris the eiffel, italy pisa, egypt the pyramids, and so on... bs whats dubai's??
nearly everyone i asked said Burj al3arab, but thats a HOTEL, i dont go to london and buy a tiny churchil!
so im asking u, whats dubais landmark/momument other than burj al3arab ?!

or ummmm does this count? --> http://www.luxusreisen.tv/img/media/dubai/Emirates%20Towers/bynight126.jpg
You have a good point there. I remember going to Qatar and asking mom's Qatari freind what to take back home to Kuwait as something specifically Qatari. For example the Omanis have 7alwa 3mania and the Bahrainis have 7alwa shwai6er, we have rahash. But if I remember correctly she couldnt think of anything. I assume it would be the same with the UAE. But they have so many creative small stuff that would be awesome. Even if you dont get something specific to the UAE your brother can probably find you some really funky stuff.
U r right walla!! I'd never thought about this!!! I have no idea what it could be.. But u can ask Smartee, shes from there and that might help :)

i think it`s burj el3rab or emirates towers ;)
if you find other tell me ;)
hehe a camel would be fine ;p
Can't give you any suggestion about a monument in Dubai but I just wanted to tell you how much I liked the banner on your blog :)
I don't think there is anything other than burj el3arab!!
but the UAE is progressing so they may build something that will be as a monnument in the future :)
uve been tagged :D
Burj Al Arab is just reflecting on Dubai as a city, but when you want to compare Kuwait, Oman, and Bahrain, use the UAE. As for a souvenir, we have the old forts, the daggers, and for females..you can get the local style 3abayas or clothes :) Same thing goes for the guys
Peppermint club...:P
basically its the projects in dubai that makes it so special
the palms...but burj al arab is meant to be a monument that makes extra profit ;-p
BA makes monthly profits the exceeds the budgest of kuwait towers...that should tell you something ;-p
a typical Dubai landmark is our dear Clock Tower as commenter before me also said.
everyone living here knows its a landmark
anan :)
well technically, from an architectural point of view, the typical landmark is either a structure/sculpture standing alone, or an office building, or a hotel.
Burj al 3arab is dubai's most recognized landmark not only in UAE but internationally as well. And hey they wanted that so who are we to tell them anything:p
thank u everyone for your suggestions and comments
street p
i dont think so babe, ill pass ;)
