Dubai - Crossing the Dubai Creek on an abra (boat), United Arab Emirates. Let's travel to Dubai and let's cross the Dubai Creek (Arabic: خور دبي‎, Khor Dubai) which is a saltwater creek located in Dubai, United Arab Emirates (UAE). Previously, Dubai Creek extended to Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary but as part of the new Dubai canal it extends through to the Persian Gulf. Some sources say that the Dubai creek extended as far inland as Al Ain, and that the Ancient Greeks called it River Zara.
Dubai is a city and emirate in the United Arab Emirates known for luxury shopping, ultramodern architecture and a lively nightlife scene. Burj Khalifa, an 830m-tall tower, dominates the skyscraper-filled skyline. At its foot lies Dubai Fountain, with jets and lights choreographed to music. On artificial islands just offshore is Atlantis, The Palm, a resort with water and marine-animal parks.
