Atlantis, The Palm
The Palm Jumeirah is another legendary hotel located on the artificial palm-tree-shaped archipelago in Dubai. However, you are not allowed to get inside unless you are a guest of the hotel. But you can visit the shisha bar inside the hotel. The best spot to capture good pictures here is the indoor aquarium, known as the Lost Chambers Aquarium. One part of the aquarium is free for visitors. It is a massive aquarium with various fishes and a magical view. You must visit there in the morning to avoid the crowd. It gets difficult to shoot pictures during the afternoon.
Dubai Miracle Garden
The Dubai Miracle Garden is another fairy-tale-like experience you can have in the city.
