Culture in Dubai is rooted in Islamic traditions, It is highly important that when tourists visit Dubai they must respect and behave suitably, as the minority group of Emiratis are very protective over their culture and traditions.

Dubai is home to 911 completed high-rises buildings. 88 of which stand taller than 180 metres (591 ft).
