Re: Dubai...
I don't have a personal photo gallery online but here are a few places to search for on google..
this is Al Hamra Fort hotel in Ras Al Khaimah which is about an hours drive outside Dubai..
there is a new development in the "old Town" Dubai... forget the skyscraper in the distance but focus on the new villas in the forefront..
search for Al Barari
there are a more Spanish style villa but to be honest the arabic style villas are very similar to Spanish/Italian/ Greek style housing.. to get the large airy rooms that keep the air cooler..
There is also Dubai, Old Town development.. just search for that
And there is a place called Zaafaran also in what is also in the Old Town part of Dubai..as you can see there is again high rise blocks in the background..
I think because there are so many foreign investors here now that each real estate developer has his own idea as to what will sell and out do the competition.. so some are going for the more traditional style whilst others are appealing to foreign buyers more..
hope the images help a bit.. feel free to drop me an e-mail if you want anything more..and next time i'm out with my camera i'll try and grab some snaps for you..
