About Bur Dubai

Bur Dubai, sometimes called “Dubai City,” can be found on the Western side of Dubai Creek, and its name means “Mainland Dubai.”

It is in a lot of ways the financial center of Dubai, and contains many shopping centers, entertainment venues, as well as prominent residential areas filled with apartment complexes. There are quite a few mosques here, including the well-known Grand Mosque as well as the Iranian Mosque. Close to the Dubai Creek in this district, you can find the only Hindu temple in this country. The Dubai Museum and, nearby, the Diwan building (a skyscraper built in 1990) are also located here.
