Cool It In Ski Dubai!
Visiting Dubai when itโs boiling outside? Donโt worry โ of all the things to do in Dubai this weekend, this one is the coolest. Spend the day in the Middle Eastโs first indoor ski resort โ go crazy throwing snow balls at each other, and go snowboarding and tobogganing with pals. Itโs real snow, and itโs icy cold, and it never gets warmer in here. You can get warm clothes, activity equipment and shoes inside. Ride up a quad-chairlift and enjoy the fabulous view from the chairlift stop. Enjoy a cup of hot coffee in the coffee shop next to the slopes and watch other skiers.

Go Mall Hopping With A Difference
Dubaiโs shopping malls are all about providing a different shopping experience.
- The Khan Murjan Souk: Itโs a subterranean market that reflects Egyptian, Moroccan, Syrian and Turkish architecture, selling everything spices to mosaics to woven carpets.
- The Souk Madinat: The shops here are connected to each other via a waterway; so when you want to shop at a different store, you hop into a boat!
- Mall of the Emirates: Apart from being one of the largest and most beautiful malls in Dubai, the Mall of Emirates has an indoor ski slope. So when you get tired of shopping, plunge into the real snow here and have some fun.
