2005: Indoor Skiing
Just when you think Dubai is out of ideas, the city becomes home to a remarkable indoor skiing slope. Located in one of the largest malls in the world, Ski Dubai has 22,500 square meters of indoor snow and an impressive indoor ski slope. In the heart of the sizzling desert, you can walk to the mall in your shorts and then change into your turtle neck and ski for the day oblivious to the sweltering heat outside.
