Where Is Dubai Located ?

Sunday 24 January 2010

Dubai is located in Asia at the south of the Persian Gulf (a.k.a Arabian Gulf). It is one of the seven states of the United Arab Emirates. It is bordered by Saudi Arabia from the west and Oman from the east as shown on the left.
The latitude of Dubai is 25°16’ North and the longitude is 55°16’ East.
Dubai is considered the second largest emirate after the capital (Abu Dhabi) with an urban area of 3886 square km and the city is around 37 square km.
Dubai will be almost twice its size after the completion of the three man-made islands which are:
  • The Waterfront (what is this ?)
  • The Three Palms (what is this?)
  • The World (what is this?)
  • The Universe (what is this?)
  • Dubailand, and a lot of constructions going on in the desert.
