Last month, I got to visit a popular winter destination here in Dubai, the Global Village. Global Village is a huge amusement park in
Dubailand. It has over 30 pavilions representing different countries
where visitors can experience the uniqueness of each culture, devour
traditional cuisines and shop specialty items. Basically, it is a
village where the world meets!
I went here last December 6, 2019 together with my colleagues turned into friends-Sel and Nicko.
I
always had to think twice prior visiting. With thousands of visitors using the
public bus since we went here on a Friday. It took me around 40 minutes to reach Global Village from Al Barsha. Global Village is open from 4pm to 1am on Thursdays, Fridays and public holidays, and 4pm to 12mn on weekdays. We bought our tickets at the booth beside the main gate; general admission ticket is at 15 AED. Here are some photos from our last visit.
