In <strong>the 3rd century CE<\/strong>, the area came under the control of <strong>the Sassanid Empire<\/strong> which lasted until <strong>the 7th century<\/strong>, when <strong>the Umayyad Caliphate<\/strong> took control and <strong>introduced Islam in the area<\/strong>. The area was sustained by <strong>fishing and pearl diving<\/strong> for a thousand years, with the first records of the town being made in 1799 when <strong>the Bani Yas clan<\/strong> established it as <strong>a dependency of Abu Dhabi<\/strong>.  <\/p>\n<p><strong>Dubai became a separate Sheikhdom in 1833<\/strong>, when <strong>the Al-Maktoum dynasty<\/strong> of <strong>the Bani Yas clan<\/strong> (initially from Abu Dhabi) took it over peacefully. <strong>The invention of artificial pearls in 1926<\/strong> and <strong>the Great Depression in 1929<\/strong> caused a collapse in <strong>the international pearl market<\/strong>, which resulted in <strong>Sheikh Saeed<\/strong> looking for <strong>an alternative source of income<\/strong> and Dubai becoming one of <strong>the leading re-export ports in the world<\/strong>. In <strong>1966, oil was discovered in Dubai<\/strong>, which changed <strong>the country beyond recognition<\/strong> and led to Dubai becoming <strong>the vibrant, modern, business-centred city-state<\/strong> it is today. <\/p>\n<h3>Culture Of Dubai<\/h3>\n<p><strong>The culture of Dubai<\/strong>, <em>an emirate of the United Arab Emirates<\/em>. Simultaneously, increasing <strong>globalisation<\/strong> and <strong>the settling of various immigrant groups<\/strong> have transformed the city into a <strong>melting pot of different nationalities<\/strong> and have given <strong>rise to a cosmopolitan culture<\/strong> that is in synch with other global cities. The UAE culture mainly revolves around <strong>the religion of Islam<\/strong> and <strong>traditional Arab culture<\/strong>.  <\/p>\n<p><strong>The influence of Islamic and Arab culture<\/strong> on its <strong>architecture, music, attire, cuisine and lifestyle<\/strong> are very prominent as well. Five times every day, Muslims are called to prayer from <strong>the minarets of mosques<\/strong> which are scattered around the country. Since 2006, <strong>the weekend has been Friday-Saturday<\/strong>, as a compromise between Friday&#8217;s holiness to <strong>Muslims and the Western weekend of Saturday-Sunday<\/strong>. In 2005, 84% of the population of metropolitan Dubai was foreign-born, about half of them from India. The city&#8217;s cultural imprint as a small, ethnically homogenous pearling community was changed with <strong>the arrival of other ethnic groups<\/strong> and <em>nationals\u2014first by the Iranians in the early 1900s, and later by Indians and Pakistanis in the 1960s<\/em>.    <\/p>\n<h3>Night Clubs At Dubai<\/h3>\n<p><strong>1) VIP Room Dubai<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>  2) Boudoir<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>  3) White Dubai-Best Club In Dubai<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>  4) Societe Dubai<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>  5) XL Dubai<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>  6) Chi At The Lodge NightClub Dubai<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>  7) Malecon<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>  8) Provocater Dubai<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>  9) The Music Room<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>  10) The Pulse<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>  11) Le Regina Dubai Super Club<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>  12) Embassy Dubai<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>  13) Dubai Marina Yatch Club<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>  14) People By Crystal<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Welcome To Dubai &#8211; Places To Visit In Dubai Places to Visit<span class=\"excerpt-hellip\"> [\u2026]<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":173616,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1588,1587,1357],"tags":[2121,1773,1774,2186,1359,2187,2188,2189,2190],"class_list":["post-173614","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-destination-info-en-ca","category-news-en-ca","category-u-a-eunited-arab-emirates-en-ca","tag-abu-dhabi-en-ca","tag-burj-khalifa-en-ca","tag-burj-al-arab-en-ca","tag-culture-of-dubai-en-ca","tag-dubai-en-ca","tag-history-of-dubai-en-ca","tag-night-clubs-at-dubai-en-ca","tag-places-to-visit-in-dubai-en-ca","tag-popular-destinations-at-dubai-en-ca"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.travelsmantra.com\/en-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/173614","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.travelsmantra.com\/en-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.travelsmantra.com\/en-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.travelsmantra.com\/en-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.travelsmantra.com\/en-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=173614"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/staging.travelsmantra.com\/en-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/173614\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.travelsmantra.com\/en-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/173616"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.travelsmantra.com\/en-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=173614"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.travelsmantra.com\/en-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=173614"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.travelsmantra.com\/en-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=173614"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
