Dubai Global Village

Each year Dubai hosts the Global Village that runs from November through February.    The most unique element of Global Village is the pavilions where you can buy merchandise of countries around the world without actually traveling there.  Each country has a pavilion with the front being designed to show each country's culture.  No European countries are represented or the US or Canada.  Mainly the middle east, India, and the Asian countries.  It was a lot of fun.  I had to laugh when we went into one pavilion and something they were selling said "made in China" and it was not the China pavilion.

India had their own little parade



This is the Africa pavilion, it was my favorite.
