Whenever I heard about Dubai it’s always the modern architecture, high-rise buildings, lavish lifestyle, and super big malls. When I wanted to try street photography there I looked for something different and then I came across the Old Dubai area. It’s actually an area dedicated to the old culture and renovated to look like an ancient city. Even though it’s more of a tourist attraction, I found some genuine people and interesting lifestyles around the area. It was crowded, filled with small shops, and more lively than the modern streets in Dubai.
