With plenty of dining experiences, themed kiosks, street entertainment and much more, if you haven't visited Global Village yet, you're missing out.
The attraction, known for its themed cities, opened for its 22nd season in Dubai recently (it's open for 158 days from November 1 to April 7) and showcases 75 cultures through its 27 pavilions, 23 restaurants and 120 food stalls. Fitting considering how multi-cultural Dubai is.
Accessible from either the Cultural Gate or Gate of the World, its costs just AED15 to get in and those aged 65 and over or People of Determination can enter with one companion for free. As if that's not reason enough to visit, they've really stepped up the experience by creating addition free spaces, roof lighting special effects and a dedicated ladies and children's area during concerts.
