Dubai

Dhows harbour on the Dubai Creek, traditional trading hearth of the city. Still today thousands of these traditional boats are docked at Dhow Warfage, full of a extraordinary array of any kind of marchandise waiting to be loaded, from computers to silk, mainly coming from China and India and directed to Africa and others Gulf countries. Dubai was once one of the most important dhow building of the Gulf, strictly connected to development of the local commerce.
