Instagrammable Dubai

Instagramable Dubai is definitely a thing... nearly 100 per cent of the UAE’s population uses social media – and one of the most popular platforms is Instagram. A quick search reveals Dubai is the 3rd most instagrammable city in the world after Sydney and Hong Kong. The popular 830m-tall Burj Khalifa tower, dominates the skyscraper-filled skyline while traditional souks provide colourful photo opportunities.

Never have I seen so many people taking selfies as in this city. With its amazing architecture, colourful street art and plenty of record-breaking attractions, Dubai is a place that's perfect for selfies. I, however, prefer sticking to angles of everyday details that make me smile...


I certainly felt very welcome wherever I went.
