The Height of Exclusivity: Emirates Hills Written by Arpan Ghosh Dubai is a city that tends to evoke awe and envy on the global property stage, often in equal measure. It is perhaps best known for its superlatives: Tallest Building in the World, Largest Indoor Ski Slope, Largest Racecourse, and so on. However, the attractions in the city aren’t just limited to tourist spots and impressive landmarks.
