Dubai is situated on the Persian Gulf coast of the United Arab Emirates and is roughly at sea

level. The emirate of Dubai shares borders with Abu Dhabi in the south, Sharjah in the northeast,

and the Sultanate of Oman in the southeast. Hatta, a minor exclave of the emirate, is surrounded

on three sides by Oman and by the emirates of Ajman (in the west) and Ras Al Khaimah (in the

north). Dubai lies directly within the Arabian Desert. The flat sandy desert gives way to the

Western Hajar Mountains, which run alongside Dubai's border with Oman at Hatta. The Western

Hajar chain has an arid, jagged, and shattered landscape.

number of core elements of Dubai's trading infrastructure was built on the back of the oil

industry revenues from oil and natural gas accounts. Dubai is also known as the City of Gold

because a major part of the economy is based on gold trade, with Dubai's total gold trading

volumes.

cash into the emirate. Dubai's lure for tourists is based mainly on shopping, but also on its

possession of other ancient and modern attractions. Dubai is the fourth most-visited city in the
