Description
View of buildings lining the shore of Dubai Creek. In the foreground a moored dhow (sailboat) sits in the middle of Dubai Creek. On the shore behind it a large, three storey building overlooks the creek on the right. A fenced enclosure sits in front of it on the sand, and further down the bank a number of 'arish huts and structures made of palm fronds sit alongside the one and two storey buildings lining the shore.
