Mall of the Emirates
To escape the sweltering weather, most visitors to Dubai retreat to the city's many indoor shopping centers, of which the Mall of the Emirates is undoubtedly the most famous. Ski Dubai is here, of course, alongside hundreds of shops and restaurants and Magic Planet, a two-story arcade featuring countless rides and games. The bright colors of the arcade play a lively counterpoint to the pure white of the dishdashas of these two young men, who are testing their mastery of "Dragon Punch."
