Overview
Dubai’s history dates back to the early 18th century when it was a small fishing and pearl-diving village. Established in the 1830s by the Al Maktoum dynasty, Dubai began to grow as a trading hub due to its strategic location along the Persian Gulf. The discovery of oil in the 1960s marked a turning point, transforming Dubai into a wealthy, modern city. Despite rapid modernization, Dubai has preserved its rich cultural heritage, with historic districts like Bastakiya showcasing traditional architecture and lifestyles. The city's diverse population and innovative spirit have turned it into a global metropolis, blending ancient traditions with futuristic ambitions.
