If you want to future drive in Dubai is no longer with the car to the center of the car in that huge parking garage free parking area. The parking garage has space on several floors of some 6000 vehicles and is directly connected to the metro station.
at every metro station, it also has a stop (with air-conditioned waiting room) for the shuttle buses.

For people who are quite want to give up the car it is this parking lot. Here already some sand storms have dumped their dust.
When I then the train was entering I pleasantly surprised at what is offered for comfort in the gold class . But the silver class is at a high standard but within a few days of operation, quite busy. In the gold class, I could still choose your seat.
In the fifth (open) Station, I then stopped the ride and I have looked around in the center of Dubai. It occurred to me that all signs have been erected to the next station. So this makes it easy to find again the Metro because the base stations are not as dominant in the area such as the transfer base stations. There are also many high-rise buildings in Dubai obscure the view in most cases.
Several shopping centers are already connected to the metro now, others wait until the station is completed. That this can be seen shopping malls are popular on the following image. Everyone wants to buy.

Some hotels are located very close to the Metro. In the background is the Kempinskihotel. DC can also see the Skipalast is where you ski.
