This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Are you asking about my personal opinion or why 15 million people visit it every year?

Personally, I visited many times because my brother studied there for 4 years, and I often transit through Dubai.

But generally, people go there for the numerous tourist attractions and duty free shopping (although, I believe that has been cancelled a couple of years ago).

What do you work for their chamber of commerce or something? You’re not convincing anyone here.

I'm not trying to convince anyone of anything, I'm just stating facts.
