The United Arab Emirates is where desert tradition collides, gloriously, with unrestrained ambition. In a few short decades, seven emirates have transformed from pearl-diving villages into one of the glitziest, most future-facing places on Earth. Yes, Dubai does the record-breaking skyscrapers and surreal excess — but there's far more here: Abu Dhabi's world-class museums, the palm-shaded oasis of Al Ain, and the wild mountain scenery of Ras Al Khaimah. Bring sunglasses, an open mind, and a very good deodorant.
