Dubai by Night: When the City Turns Magical - Part 2
It is already more than a month since I returned from my second Dubai trip, and even though it was only a few days, there is still so much to remember and to share!
In case you would like to see my previous post and are thinking of visiting Dubai, feel free to check out here where I am describing Dubai during December, and mostly during day time.
In this post I will be sharing some magical night moments. There are so many things and experiences to do, in this post I will share my own point of view and advice.
As beautiful and impressive as Dubai is during the day, at night it becomes truly magical, fairy-tale like. When the sun sets and the city lights up, Dubai transforms into a glowing skyline of lights and reflections

Dubai a city never sleeps. There are countless places to visit at night, from waterfront promenades and viewpoints to restaurants, malls, and open-air spots. The city is vivid and with tourists throughout the year, and in December, (as I found out, due to the mildest climate for me) the experience is even more enjoyable. The weather is very comfortable; sometimes you might need a light jacket, or not.
(unless you are out of the city, then you definitely need a jacket for the night)
Of course even in Paradise, you need to eat!
You will never be out of choices here .. you can find local, and many different cuisine restaurants wherever you are. Also, big brands and chefs are around the city (be prepared to have a full wallet if you go gourmet :))

You’ll see families with kids, couples, tourists, and locals all sharing the same spaces. In some central areas, you may even come across locals singing and dancing to traditional music, adding a cultural and authentic touch to the night atmosphere. It’s lively, warm, and welcoming, I never felt tired or overwhelmed.

Do you see this little pony on the left? There were many toys like this one, with different characters and children would go on them and drive through. It was safe, and so cute! I did not want to take more photos so not to show childrens faces.
Walking though the area, and near the Coca Cola Arena

Once again I was impressed by the level of cleanliness, everywhere! This made the photos and reflections a dream! I think I should organize a photo-trip there sometime soon!

The arrival night I walked past the Coca Cola Arena and everything for Binance Blockchain Week was ready!

The view near my hotel was stunning!
One of the most impressive night experiences in Dubai is at the Dubai Marina and port area. Booking a boat or yacht ride offers an even more stunning view and different perspective of the city. The skyline looks even more dramatic from the water, with lights & skyscrapers reflecting endlessly on the sea.

And the best part?
Full moon was loading!
This building on the right was so fun to watch! It was changing colors and I could really stay and watch it for a long time..
You can almost see it here

One of my most memorable experiences in Dubai this time, was taking a boat trip.
The view even before we started was .. stunning!

I went to the marina at 6 pm and shortly afterwards the sun had set for good.
And that's when the good stuff started!
The moon was full, and so was my mood!

Ain Dubai is the world’s largest observation wheel, standing at about 250 meters high, making it even taller than the London Eye. When illuminated after sunset, it becomes a glowing landmark that perfectly complements the surrounding skyscrapers and the calm waters of the Marina.
Full moon over the sea, made everything look almost as if being in a dream

This was a trip that I will forever be grateful for, and also grateful for being able to share with you.

And one of the night photos I took from the plane, to say good bye to a city that never sleeps, or stops to impress!
Thank you for your time!

It's amazing how it resembles one of our modern cities in the west... It's a place where you could get lost by it's fashion... Have you been forced to wear the veil?
