THE PLACE TO BE SEEN
THE PLACE TO BE SEEN
Despite being one of Dubai’s newest districts, Business Bay is already recognised as one of the city’s hippest areas to be and be seen. Ranking fifth in Lonely Planet’s guide to the world’s top 10 “coolest neighbourhoods to visit”, Business Bay is gaining quite the reputation for its ideal mix of affordable, high-quality accommodation, world-class hotels, restaurants, bars and desirable waterside living.
“Bordered by glitzy Downtown Dubai to the north and intersected by Dubai Canal, there’s a 12km-long promenade for strolling, while ferries cruise south to Dubai Marina and north to the Al Fahidi Historic District,” Lonely Planet notes in its review of the district. “Things will only improve over the next few years as parks, playgrounds, marinas, hotels, cafés and boutiques pop up along the canal. Away from the water, Bay Avenue is the community’s buzzing heart, with casual restaurants, a pleasant park and weekly farmers’ market during the cooler winter months.”
