Walking in Dubai

Beyond its skyscrapers, Dubai's oldest quarters on either side of Dubai Creek, with the Al Fahidi wind-tower houses, the gold and spice souks and abra ferries, are made for walking.

Terrain. Flat, with narrow lanes in the old quarters and a short boat crossing; other districts are separated by major roads.

Heat. May to September is very hot, with August temperatures that can reach about 54°C and coastal humidity of 60 to 70 percent. Walk early or after dark and plan indoor stops. Late September to early May is far more comfortable.
