I really liked the evening Global Village! You come here and it's like you get into the world of mini-countries, where each culture is represented by its own bright features. A great place for walking and shopping!
It is positioned as a fair with the traditions of the peoples of the world. In fact, it is a huge market. A large-scale and beautifully made market. There are many pavilions from different countries, with clothes, cosmetics, household goods inherent in this country. But most are made in China. And it is very expensive (you can definitely bargain in the Africa pavilion). A big plus is the opportunity to try a variety of food, from classic boiled corn and popcorn, to dishes typical of a certain country. Children will not be bored in the big amusement park either.
Great place for that. There are many attractions for children, various performances, cafes, restaurants. Pavilions with goods from different countries. The children were delighted.
Very beautiful. From the very entrance to the very exit, it is impossible to break away from the stunning views and architecture typical of various countries and regions. Local cuisines and goods are presented inside each pavilion of the country. Aromas and colors merge into a delicious cocktail of excellent mood.
There is a place to eat, choose the cuisine of which region you prefer and go ahead. All kinds of Oriental, and for some reason, Balkan, are especially common. At least at the time of our visit, we counted more than three cafes and restaurants in the Balkan region.
You can walk endlessly. But we also need to go home. You can get there by car, taxi, or regular buses to the metro.
This place turned out to be much more interesting than I expected. There are so many cultures gathered in one village! The food, souvenirs, shows and atmosphere are all great! You can spend the whole day here discovering something new.
An elegant open-air fair on the territory of which pavilions and products from most countries of the world are presented. It works in the evening, Tuesday, if I'm not mistaken, is a family day - visiting by men is highly not recommended. You can find everything your heart desires - spices, food, hand made products, cosmetics, jewelry, carpets from all corners of the globe. Among the disadvantages is the assortment of the Rossiya pavilion, except for honey, incomprehensible cosmetics, hairpins, children's clothes and fur coats from the "plucked rabbit", our country has nothing to imagine. There are many fast food areas and entertainment parks on the territory.
The working hours are from 16 to 00, from October to April. You can get there by public transport - via metro and bus (bus stop nearby) or, more simply, by taxi. If you live in the downtown Dubai area, then the trip takes 30-50 minutes and costs from 60AED
If you want to see the many cultures of the world, goods from all over the world, different people and architecture of the countries of the world, then this is the place for you. Here you will find everything that I have listed above. The place to visit when traveling in the UAE
I love the Global Village, I think it's a must-visit place in Dubai. Admission is inexpensive, but there are a million entertainments inside: pavilions from all over the world with goods, a variety of cafes and restaurants, a cool amusement park, stages with constant performances for adults and children, an arena for stunt shows (my favorite) and, of course, a million locations for photos. Because of this, it can be very crowded, but if it doesn't scare you, you and your children will get a lot of new positive emotions!
A huge fair of all sorts of things. You can eat, watch different shows, do some shopping.
There are sooo many people on the weekend that can't get through. Prices are cheaper than in the shopping center in Dubai, so locals are willing to buy here. There are a lot of very beautiful fabrics, national clothes of different countries
I liked. One disadvantage is the remoteness. There is a bus that goes there, but it takes a very long time to get there. It's expensive to take a taxi, given that the entrance is paid.
We visit Dubai every time, a lot has changed, we really like the performances of artists at the summer playground, there are many new attractions , the pavilions have been updated for the better.
Like it. There are many locations representing the countries of the world. In each, the goods of a particular country. There is an amusement park (extreme swing/carousel). In general, it was interesting.
At the entrance, the jaw drops in surprise, but then it becomes clear that there is nothing but a "beautiful screen" here. The goods in the stores are very household and of no value, although their cost is 3-5 times higher than local prices in the country represented. Thai foodmarket is very mediocre - not at all like what we ate in Phuket, but three times more expensive. Even in Russia, you can eat tom yam tastier and cheaper
I expected more, there were too many people, a crowd, but in fact just a "bazaar" with annoying sellers. But it's beautiful overall, especially the show. In some places, they gave sweets, drinks, and creams to try.
It's noisy, there are a lot of people, and it's not comfortable. In fact, a huge bazaar with a paid entrance and a high price tag for goods. It's beautifully decorated, especially after sunset. I definitely don't want to visit a second time.
A very atmospheric and interesting place. There are many pavilions from different countries on the same site and you can visit several dozen countries in one evening. Each pavilion sells products specific to this country. The price tag is too high, but you can bargain. In India, they are well inferior) I really liked it, I will definitely come back here on my next trip to Dubai!
Global Village is a fairy tale about the friendship of peoples. I advise you to go in the evening, when the sun will not be scorching. All nationalities are represented in this place and entering their "compartment" you immerse yourself completely in culture and customs. A very cool place where themed shows and performances take place every half hour, delicious food is everywhere and also national from different countries.
Go ahead, you won't regret it.
Good afternoon, everyone! This year, 2024, I was vacationing in the UAE. The rest is great! Besides Safari, we visited this wonderful place. There is a great abundance of goods from Russia, Turkey, China, Afghanistan and other countries. A large assortment of dates. I love them very much! I recommend it to everyone.
I liked everything. A SEA OF FLOWERS. Very beautiful. It feels like people have put a lot of work and imagination into this project. It's definitely worth visiting this place once.
The place is cool, you can stick for a few hours, arriving there you can see and buy different things from almost every point in the world, there is also something to do with children, show programs, attractions, etc.
Very cool place! A bunch of multinational establishments! From all sides there are some entertainments, attractions, fountain shows. I love the location of Africa!!! They always have fun! Incredibly cool dancing!!! And a very symbolic price for a ticket! Therefore... available to everyone! But!!! It is worth considering the seasonality! Because from the end of spring to the middle of October, the Village is closed!!!
A great place to spend an interesting evening! Perhaps my favorite place in Dubai! Such a motley mix of cultures, gastronomy, clothes, music - it's all very interesting to see and feel! I also enjoy watching performances there every time - music and dancing should not leave anyone indifferent.
This is an amazing place! Be sure to watch the concerts on stage. And of course, visit the town of each represented country. Despite all the other splendor of Dubai, Global Village has left the best memories in me!
It's probably the only market in the world where you pay 10 bucks per person to enter. Any entertainment inside is paid for separately, all items for 3 prices. Add to that 70 bucks for a taxi from anywhere in Dubai, and you get this misunderstanding.
Large-scale, but very crowded. Basically, all the pavilions of the countries have monotonous products (fabrics, spices, clothes). It is difficult to get there on your own, buses rarely run, taxis in that direction are not cheap. There is a large amusement area, for children, and for adults there is a lot of entertainment. There are many cafes with different cuisines. The entrance ticket is inexpensive
A huge open-air market. There are not many countries, mostly Muslim. They sell mostly clothes and some food. The price tag is different, it's better to bargain.
There are performances on 2 different stages several times a day. Ideas about nothing. There is noise and uproar all around. There are a lot of different foods for every taste, but you have to understand that it's still fast food.
It is better to get from Dubai and back by taxi, of which there are a million. Save time and nerves.
A very interesting fair, many beautiful themed pavilions. Bright slightly cartoon decorations. It doesn't look like classic Dubai. And to eat and buy something and a photo shoot. A must-visit. Of course, the goods are Asian consumer goods, but the atmosphere of an oriental fair.
A must-visit, a variety of dishes from different cuisines of the world, a variety of performances by various music / dance teams from each represented country on the Global. Plus attractions for adults and children
Great place! There are a lot of things you can't get around in an evening. In fact, this is a large oriental market stylized for different countries. There are many attractions of slot machines and so on. There are a huge number of places where you can eat for any budget.
A good amusement park and a fair of goods from all over the world. We always buy fabrics from Pakistan here. Interesting crafts and decorations in the African and Indian pavilions. Lots of food. If you walk from pavilion to pavilion, you can watch the performances of many national performers.
An interesting place, beautifully decorated, everything is illuminated in the evening, only there is no scheme and therefore you can skip any pavilion. The fair itself is not interesting, goods that are not produced in this country can be sold in different countries, prices are greatly inflated. The Russian pavilion was disappointed, Russian-speaking sellers - Kazakhs and Kyrgyz, representing not Russian goods at all, gzhel and ceramics, matryoshkas and Russian cosmetics were presented from ours. There are performances on the main stage and in some pavilions, in general the atmosphere is friendly, everyone is friendly, the sellers are a little intrusive. There are many cafes around where you can taste and appreciate the national cuisine of different countries. It's worth visiting this place once.
There is a huge market with thousands of rather intrusive traders, prices are very high, so it is necessary to bargain, besides, most things can be seen from China
We were in November! The center is closed in summer due to the heat. I am absolutely delighted! Sooooo beautiful. You can enjoy delicious dishes from different cuisines of the world. It is better to arrive at the opening at 16, so that later you can see the night center. It's super beautiful!
Everything is cool done in terms of architecture + bomb lighting in the evening. But in fact it is a huge fair with goods (the price tag is too high). The Russian pavilion turned out to be the most abandoned - it was sad to enter it. But the others... African, Qatar, etc. are very atmospheric, just mini bazaars of those countries.
Entrance fee is 20/30 dirhams per day, parking is free
A beautiful wrapper, nonsense inside))
The first impression is very pleasant, everything is beautiful, it glows, the eyes run away. The touts invite you to try everything, they smile and impose... Cherkizon reminds me)) In fact, it is a large market with local and Chinese goods. I liked the Turkish and African parts, they are at least a little authentic and fun, the rest are not impressed. There is a small lunopark with attractions for both kids and adults, prices are different, acceptable, but you can minimally replenish the card for 150 dirhams (like) and pay for the rides with it, you will not be able to buy a ticket for 1 attraction. You can watch the show on the big stage, the children will like it, they repeat every 20-30 minutes. In the evening it gets colder in the desert, it is better to wear closed shoes and take a warm jacket with you, especially if you are traveling from November to March. I definitely wouldn't have gone there a second time.
A very atmospheric place, a huge world's fair where almost all countries are represented. It is better to go later in the evening, as it is hot. It works from 16.00 in the season until May 5, then it seems to work again from October.
The idea is great! To gather representatives of manufacturers from different countries and peoples in one place and give an opportunity in this noisy , bright, sometimes naive place to find partners, join the cuisine, the atmosphere of the countries represented . Super! It is impossible to get around everything in one evening (they open at 16:00 and work until 23:00).
If you arrive by car, I recommend driving past their expensive 120 aed paid parking lots, leave the car at a nearby shopping center and have fun riding an electric bicycle rickshaw to the entrance))
A must-visit in Dubai) it looks like our VDNH, with a slightly different concept, in places it looks like the Gardener's market, In fact a huge open-air shopping center. In the evening, there is a show program, dances of peoples in each pavilion every half hour. There are a lot of people. Everything is expensive, noisy, packed as always. Dancing groups are highly overrated in my opinion) There is an amusement park - more for children, but there is also for adults. Well scared in House of Fear - I recommend it))
A great place to relax and have fun. Suitable for the whole family, there is an amusement park, a layout of world attractions. There are many themed restaurants. I recommend you to visit
It's a cool place, especially with children. Taking a walk in the evening to see this is one of the must-have options for visiting Dubai. Although I was in this place only on my fourth visit. There is a lot to see and this is one of those places that you need. Again, adjusted for arrival dates.
A very interesting, atmospheric place where goods and products from all over the world are presented, each placed in its own location corresponding to a particular country. A good set of attractions, types of kitchens and food. In general, I think if you have time, money and desire, it is a must-visit place

A must-visit place in Dubai and not only for families with children. It is better to arrive in the afternoon, at 4-5 o'clock, when the sun is not so high. Tickets are 25 dirhams per person. Be prepared to walk a lot. We didn't see 1/3 of the park in 7 hours, and we never got to the attractions. There is a themed food in the corner of each country, but I would recommend a floating market in the middle of the park - near the river, there is a long street with Asian food, very tasty, 100% similar to national dishes. I think we'll come back here again to go through the places we didn't have time to reach.
The place is very interesting. But there are a few things that spoiled the experience. First of all, why are the same goods in different pavilions? For example, we buy a bag in the pavilion of country X, where they assure us that this is an exclusive handmade work of the masters of this region. However, then we see this product in almost every other pavilion. And, of course, we feel cheated.
Further. After spending several hours walking around the market, we realized not only that everything is equally Chinese everywhere. It's all just the same. And... the same size!!! ONE SIZE. In particular, I wanted to buy pajamas, a bathrobe, a sweater or a wool suit. Yes, it was not there!!! I went to one place - the size is the same for everyone. It's the same in the other tent. But the most interesting thing is that most sellers DO NOT ALLOW MEASURING products! We are not talking about underwear, but about sweaters and outerwear. As a result, we are extremely disappointed with shopping in this place. The only pavilion with really cool colorful products is Africa. So I recommend visiting, just for fun.
A very interesting place, many different attractions, pavilions from different countries, sell many different goods, souvenirs, cosmetics, I advise you to visit if you are on vacation in Dubai
