Who Wants to Go for a Walk?

A man comfortably seated in his Mercedes-Benz SUV takes a leisurely stroll in the desert with his pet camel—a pretty smart move to keep out of the blazing desert sun! The vast deserts surrounding Dubai, like the Arabian Desert, have always been central to Emirati culture.

Camels, known as the “ships of the desert,” were historically vital for travel, trade, and survival in this harsh environment. They are revered for their endurance and adaptability. Today, while luxury vehicles dominate the landscape, camels remain a significant cultural symbol. This juxtaposition of a modern SUV with a traditional camel stroll highlights Dubai’s uniqueness.
