Dubai




In the past

Dubai was a small city that has the most important trading port that connect the Arabian gulf with India. The native people were like to kinds. The first kind settled down near the beaches and most of them were traders, fishermen and pearl divers. The second kind are Bedouins and they live in the desert. The live some how in voluntary simplicity or in another word every thing the need is from nature and they grow it by themselves. I was born in Dubai , it is a great city before and now it is different ! .

The Most Important Event In Abu Dhabi



The first Formula 1™ circuit in Abu Dhabi and The whole world of motorsport has met here and celebrated this most spectacular motorsport venue that will be home to plenty of upcoming events. It took place on the October 30th to November 1st . It is a big event in thee city that all the famous people in F1 came there and celebrate this event in my country . For me it was a normal event but my friends were crazy with it , they spend a lot of money to go there and see the race . One ticket it cost nearly 900 dollar ! it is expensive but you will have fun there with your friend if you are in love with cars and F1 races . It is a good opportunity to make Abu Dhabi famous in the world by this event !.

Abu Dahbi




Abu Dhabi is the capital of, and the second largest city in the UAE after Dubai . Abu Dhabi houses important offices of the federal government and the royal family are living there . It is a very big city and it has a lot of buildings and beautiful places . I was grown in Abu Dahbi and I studied there . It has a lot of good school and universities for studying . All of the people don't know that it is the capital of my country because it is not popular as Dubai . it has the most beautiful beach in my country , I always go there with my friends to see the beautiful seen and to enjoy the view of the buildings and the view of the city at night it is very beautiful . You will see the buildings are decorated with a lot of lights and flags . All the people there are populer that they have a lot of money but believe me it is a stereotype . Abu Dahbi has a lot of events so I will mention it in the next blog .

The Official Language of the UAE


The Official Language of the UAE is Arabic . All the people in the UAE speak Arabic so the first language to speak is Arabic and the meddle east region speak this language . It is easy language to learn . In the UAE the second language is English so if you don't know how to speak Arabic you can use English to communicate with other people . Arabic is the first language to use in the government , banks and many other places . If you are driving on the high or if you want to go to any place the information is written in both language Arabic and English so it is easy to the tourists to go around the country .
