29 shameless photos of Dubai that will amaze you

If someone is serious about losing weight, Dubai is an extremely tempting option. It might sound a bit strange at first, right? The government of Dubai is surprising everyone with an extraordinary idea: It's opening its gold vault and giving every citizen a whopping 2 grams of the shining metal as a reward once they bravely lose 2 kilograms of body weight.

This is serious business – every single calorie counts, and everything is weighed on the most precious scale, the gold scale!

While family beaches are common around the world, tourists in Dubai may be surprised to learn that there are beaches reserved exclusively for families and women. Single men are not allowed in these areas, and those who are allowed must wear "appropriate" beachwear.

Women must be fully clothed on these beaches. Locals say it's nice for women to have exclusive beaches where they can move freely without being disturbed or disturbing others. It's also helpful that there are beaches that are more respectful of their religious and cultural beliefs. This way, any unpleasant things like smoking and loud music can be avoided, especially for families with children.

Dubai is world-famous for its opulent hotels, and luxurious bathrooms are a must. In Dubai, ordinary bathrooms look more like mini-palaces, as they're more than ten times larger than what you're used to.

One of the most expensive bathrooms in the world is located in the XXII Carat Club Villas in Dubai. No expense has been spared here: The finest marble design and a $1 million Amazonian rock crystal bathtub will delight any wellness enthusiast. Who wouldn't want to enjoy a relaxing bubble bath in such a setting?
