In addition, Dubai Municipality is highlighting a comprehensive package of innovative development projects that will transform the design and infrastructure of Dubai's public beaches.
These projects will enhance the reputation, attractiveness, and brilliance of Dubai's beaches as leading global destinations, offering integrated tourism options that meet the desires and interests of residents and tourists, enhancing their experience.
The Municipality is also showcasing its recreational and sports projects in the emirate's parks and facilities, including the mountain walking trail in Mushrif National Park. The trail, which extends 9.7 kilometres, is the first and longest of its kind in the heart of Dubai.
It also includes the Mushrif Hub, a recreational initiative that combines a range of integrated leisure services.
The Hatta Mountain Bike Trail, which is 86 kilometres long and features 21 cycling lanes and 17 walking trails, offers a unique tourist experience for visitors, professionals, and adventure enthusiasts.
As part of its efforts to enhance the tourist appeal of historical and heritage areas and markets, the Municipality will highlight the historic Deira Souq as a prominent tourist destination in the emirate. It will also develop and modernise the area to preserve its symbolic value and historical significance.
This will be achieved through the Heritage and Tourist Trails Project in Deira's Traditional Markets, which extends 1,740 metres in length.
Dubai Municipality has equipped the markets with numerous facilities, including a prayer area for women that accommodates the needs of people of determination, innovative umbrellas, lighting, multiple seating areas, and smart bathrooms.

Dubai Municipality is participating in this event to showcase its future vision for tourism, which is based on developing pioneering strategic practices and projects that are in line with the concepts of sustainability and innovation, providing advanced levels of quality of life and well-being."
"This will contribute to making Dubai a leading global tourist destination and consolidating the emirate's cultural and tourism identity, leading to the realisation of its vision of being one of the best cities in the world to live, visit, and invest," he said.
He added, "Designing and developing tourism experiences in Dubai is a key pillar of Dubai Municipality's work. This is achieved through the implementation of innovative projects in its parks and recreational facilities, creating smart, sustainable, and flexible spaces that transform them into integrated and attractive tourist destinations that combine Emirati heritage with modern tourism concepts that meet the aspirations of residents and visitors and enhance their quality of life and well-being."
