The United Arab Emirates is a state in the Middle East, consisting of seven emirates. The capital of the UAE is Abu Dhabi.

The economy of the UAE is based on the export of oil and gas. Oil production is approximately 2.2 million barrels per day. It was oil that provided the powerful growth of the Emirates economy over the past few decades.

The low level of traffic accidents can be added to the advantages of traveling by car - after all, the Emirates is a non-drinking country with sober drivers.

Today, traveling by car is the easiest and most comfortable way to get from point A to point B in the Emirates. However, the government is actively working to improve the transport system in the state. For example, Dubai has already launched a subway, the route of which covers the key attractions of the city and the airport. The metro operates in automatic mode, without a driver - this is the world's largest system of unmanned trains, with air conditioners maintaining a comfortable temperature.

The steadily developing economy of the UAE provides the inhabitants of this state with a decent standard of living and good wages (the average wage level, according to data for 2020, is about $5,000 per month). It is also an attractive region for those who want to run their own business. In the Emirates, only companies engaged in the oil and gas industry, as well as financial institutions, are required to pay taxes.

Medicine in the Emirates is one of the best in the world. For foreigners, it is paid, but the insurance policy covers many services.

An important factor is safety. The UAE is a safe state. Local authorities strictly monitor compliance with laws and order, there are surveillance cameras on the streets, so the crime rate is low here.

Life expectancy for an average UAE resident is 77.8 years (according to the Happy Planet Index 2020).

The futuristic architecture of Dubai and its scope leaves no one indifferent. This city truly demonstrates the wonders of modern architecture and engineering. Thus, the world's tallest tower Burj Khalifa has 162 floors and reaches a height of 828 m. In addition to countless offices, the tower houses the world's largest nightclub, a huge swimming pool, a mosque and a luxurious five-star hotel.

And not far from the Burj Khalifa skyscraper there is another "record holder" - the world's highest musical fountain, 275 m high. The world's largest harbor, Jebel Ali, completes the list of amazing buildings in the UAE. Initially it was built for utilitarian purposes, but over time, luxury hotels, restaurants and cafes have grown around it, and this place has become a magnet for tourists.

In a hot summer, shopping centers in the Emirates are a real salvation from the heat. It is not surprising that shopping centers have turned into a separate art form here - they occupy huge areas, and they have everything that the most whimsical customer could wish for, and even more. Huge aquariums, cinemas, spas, fairs, food courts - here you can satisfy any desire.
