Not far from the monument, there are Dubai Bell Tower and Fountain. The four columns of the bell tower are radial and the architectural style is novel. There are no rivers in this city, but there is a large-scale waterworks. The city is well afforested. Palm trees line the streets, and flowers bloom on the safe island in the middle of the road, which looks like a tropical island country.

It is the busiest container port in the world, with an annual throughput of over100000 tons. It is equipped with advanced navigation lights and many modern auxiliary equipment.

It is the richest city in the Middle East and the United Arab Emirates, but for us who are good at "color", it seems monotonous, except for black. Walking on the streets of Dubai, almost all men are wearing white robes, while women are wearing black robes from head to toe, showing only one pair of eyes. I think women here don't have to worry about someone looking back at you when they walk down the street, because no one will know if it is a beautiful girl or an old woman in black. Once I asked the tour guide curiously, why do women wear white robes? The tour guide said that white is easy to "run out". The most famous Zhu in Dubai >

Question 8: Is the UAE made up of many countries? * * * The United Arab Emirates is a loose federal state, consisting of seven Emirates (Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Sharjah, Ajman, Ras al-Khaimah, Umm al-Qaiwan and Fujairah). Each emirate is basically independent in economy, and each emirate implements its own economic development plan, and has its own customs system, chamber of commerce and industry and civil aviation administration. The Federal Supreme Council is the highest authority in the United Arab Emirates, and consists of chiefs from seven Emirates. Major policy issues at home and abroad are discussed and decided by the Committee. The President and Vice President are elected from the members of the Supreme Council for a term of five years. The president is also the commander-in-chief of the armed forces. After the founding of the Federation, the Emirates maintained relative independence and had certain autonomy in politics, economy, justice, administration and foreign exchanges. Federal funds are mainly borne by Abu Dhabi and Dubai.
* * * The UAE covers an area of 84,000 square kilometers and has a population of 3 million (data in 2000, the same below). * * * is the national language and common English, with a gross national product of $6 1 1 billion, a per capita income of $20,400, a foreign exchange reserve of $9.4 billion and an inflation rate of 4%.

The United Arab Emirates was once a relatively poor and backward country. After 1966 discovered the oil field, 1969 began to export oil, and the domestic economy embarked on the road of prosperity. The superior geographical location is another important reason for the economic prosperity of the UAE. The United Arab Emirates is located in the throat of the Gulf (also known as the Persian Gulf). Dubai is a typical port city. With convenient transportation and timely local guidance, Dubai has become a trade distribution center in the Middle East. The radiation area has reached other areas in North Africa, the Middle East, Southern Europe, South Asia and West Asia, with a population of 654.38+03 billion and a high consumption level, especially in some countries in the Middle East. Its domestic industry is limited to the petroleum and petrochemical fields, and most consumer goods depend on imports, which greatly affects the commercial market and entrepot trade in the Gulf region, objectively consolidates Dubai's position as a trade distribution center and promotes local economic prosperity.
Long-term political stability has provided a guarantee for the economic development of the UAE. Due to historical, ethnic, religious and other reasons, the country has been in war for a long time, and the riots have never stopped. Not only neighboring countries are at war and harassing each other, such as Iran and Iraq, Iraq and Kuwait, Palestine and Israel, but also factions in Lebanon, even with developed countries such as Libya, Sudan and the United States. The uninterrupted war has seriously restricted the economic development of these countries. At the same time, the United Arab Emirates has never had such troubles since its founding, and has been committed to domestic construction and economic development. The original economic center of the Middle East was Lebanon. Due to the influence of weather, geography, people and other factors, this center has been transferred, and the UAE has firmly established its position as an economic and financial center in the Middle East. This change in status has played an inestimable role in the UAE's economy.
