Bahrein

Gotta admire the architecture of Bahrein. It is by many things very similar to Dubai, but in a lot of ways differs. Yes, it is expensive as Dubai, but it has a lot longer tradition than the United Arab Emirates town that turned into a global sensation in quite a short period of time. 

It has sites to see, old and newly built, there are beaches, there is everything you need to have an exelent vacation. But, again, to do so, you'll need quite a lot of money (if you want to have a nice time, anyway!). If you do, enjoy. 

Dubai

Dubai is one of the seven emirates and also the most popular city in the United Arab Emirates. It is the fastest growing city in the world and one of the most beautiful at that. The temperature is always high, and that makes this city one of the most perfect vacation spots for people that like the summer and warm weather. 

But have no illusions, it's an expensive city. It will offer you the best time of your life, but it will cost you the most it ever did. You have probabley heard that the six star hotels were introduced in Dubai for the first time, and they don't come cheap. Also, book everything in advance. They might not have an opening when you get there. 

So, if you decide on going to Dubai for your holiday, I wish you have a nice time. Cheers!
