Shangri-La Barr Al Jissah Resort & Spa 5*

Dubai Gold Souq

In Muscat's Grand Mosque, there is a beautiful

hand-loomed carpet; it was once the world's

largest rug until Abu Dhabi's Grand Mosque, in

the United Arab Emirates, pinched the record.

This is poignant because Oman doesn't boast

many 'firsts' or 'biggest' in a region obsessed

by vanity. What it does boast, with its rich

heritage and embracing society, is a strong

sense of identity, a pride in an ancient,

frankincense-trading past and confidence in a

highly educated future.

For people visiting Oman, this offers a rare

chance to engage with the Arab world without

the distorting lens of excessive wealth. Oman's

low-rise towns retain their traditional charms

and Bedouin values remain at the heart of an

Omani welcome. With an abundance of natural

beauty, from spectacular mountains, wind-

swept deserts and a pristine coastline, Oman

is the obvious choice for those seeking to

experience the authentic Arabian experience.

Orientation tour

Legendary Hospitality

The essence of the Arabian Peninsula lies in its

people: good-natured haggling in souqs, cursing on

long journeys, sharing of sweet tea on the edge of wild

places. Unifying all, there's Islam, a way of life, the call

to prayer carried on an inland breeze, a gentle

hospitality extended towards strangers. And this is

what many travellers most remember of their visit to

the region – the ancient tradition of sharing 'bread and

salt' and of ensuring safe passage, albeit given a

modern context.

Did you know… • Dubai is in the process of building a climate-controlled city within itself that’s 2.25 times the size of Monaco. The as of yet unnamed city will be within Dubai’s limits and will feature air-conditioned walkways that get you from street to street and building to building for visitors’ maximal comfort. • Dubai has no standard address system. Due to the rate at which Dubai is growing, it doesn’t have a standard address system in place. Instead of an address line on a mailing label, there is a space where residents can draw a map or write out specific instructions such as: “After the white mosque, first street to the left, gold door.” • Dubai is the fastest growing city on Earth. 20% of all cranes operating on the planet can be found in Dubai. Dubai’s metro system was completed in 2009, features 42 stations and was built in a shocking 18 months – a small fraction of what it would take other cities to accomplish such a task. • Dubai has zero debt tolerance. If you fall into default on your credit cards and miss payments, you can be sent to jail or deported. • Dubai population is 83% immigrants

Under the industrious effort and diligent work of the whole project team, the NU SKIN Success Trip project in Dubai rang down her curtain in a sound of praise. We hereby gratefully express our strong thanks to Arabian Adventures Meetings, Incentives and Events for the full support you have provided to CYTS M.I.C.E. and the project. We highly appreciate the elite teams you deployed for the project at the first time, which helped us to build a super-strong project team and overcome difficulties and challenges to ensure a smooth and successful project.

We believe the NU SKIN Success Trip project in Dubai is a milestone not only for the NU SKIN, the destinations, the M.I.C.E. industry in China, CYTS M.I.C.E., but also for your company and every participant from your company as well. Once again we thank you for your support and attention on this project!
