The wow effect didn't happen, but it's interesting. Bright, beautiful, atmospheric. There are a lot of visitors, and you have to move a lot to get around it for several hours. It is not always realistic to find an empty seat, sit down, take a break

It's noisy, there are a lot of people, and it's not comfortable. In fact, a huge bazaar with a paid entrance and a high price tag for goods. It's beautifully decorated, especially after sunset. I definitely don't want to visit a second time.

One of the best places in Dubai. The indescribable atmosphere of a holiday and an oriental fairy tale. Bright colorful pavilions of many Middle Eastern countries with various goods and food outlets with national cuisine. We enjoyed watching the colorful show at the India Pavilion. It is impossible to review everything in one visit.

A great place to visit. Admission is inexpensive. There is a delicious place to eat, street food with shrimp and octopus, you can lick your fingers, everything is cooked in front of you. There is a Turkish restaurant on site, we ordered a portion of meat for two, but it is also delicious for 6. And of course, shopping, you can bargain and buy a lot of things.

An interesting place, lots of attractions for children. But it's very crowded. I killed the Russian pavilion, almost nothing from Russia, only Chinese goods, I'm ashamed of my homeland🥲

Global Village Dubai (World Village) is a grand fair that takes place from November to April. According to the idea, each participating country erects its own pavilion on the territory, which should acquaint the visitor with the way of life and cultural traditions of its people, demonstrate and offer ethnic attributes, outfits, goods and souvenirs. The number of pavilions has exceeded 27 today, and the number of participating countries is 75, in every corner of which folk music is played, traditional cuisine is prepared and cultural events are held. There is a children's playground and attractions on site. The entrance fee is 25 derham. Opening hours are from 16:00 to 24:00 (on weekdays). It was a little disappointing that there are many Chinese-made goods in the Russian pavilion that are not related to Russian culture.

An elegant open-air fair on the territory of which pavilions and products from most countries of the world are presented. It works in the evening, Tuesday, if I'm not mistaken, is a family day - visiting by men is highly not recommended. You can find everything your heart desires - spices, food, hand made products, cosmetics, jewelry, carpets from all corners of the globe. Among the disadvantages is the assortment of the Rossiya pavilion, except for honey, incomprehensible cosmetics, hairpins, children's clothes and fur coats from the "plucked rabbit", our country has nothing to imagine. There are many fast food areas and entertainment parks on the territory. The working hours are from 16 to 00, from October to April. You can get there by public transport - via metro and bus (bus stop nearby) or, more simply, by taxi. If you live in the downtown Dubai area, then the trip takes 30-50 minutes and costs from 60AED

A large market with a paid entrance and a long-distance road. It looks authentic in places. But there are a lot of weaves. Turkish ice cream is not only on display in Turkey. I got mango ice cream in Japan)) Perfume is everywhere. I liked the location of Iran the most. And the entrance is authentic, and the performance is cool. The price is overpriced everywhere. The old town is much more interesting for immersing yourself in the atmosphere of the country.

The fair is very interesting. Even if you're not going to buy anything, it's worth a visit. Each pavilion is interesting in its own way + amusement park. There are two main aspects of the fair: 1) this is a strict dress code at the entrance - you will not be allowed inside in short shorts or a short skirt, they sell stoles for 30 dirhams next to the entrance, I had to buy it. 2) if you like a product, bargain to the last, so you can bring down the price well. On the day off, we paid 30 dirhams per person for admission. There is a 106 bus from the Mall Emirate metro station to the fair (I found an up-to-date bus schedule on the Internet).

In general, it's not a bad place for a local folk hangout, but there are a lot of repeats of catering brands and somehow few countries are really represented. An interesting interactive show, but for an additional fee. Don't forget to buy the child a passport of a man of the world and put stamps everywhere .

We were with the family several times, we really liked the fair. If you do not pay attention to the perfumes, rags and Chinese glitter jewelry that repeat in each country, then it is quite possible to find something very authentic and special in each pavilion. In the evening, songs and dances of the peoples of the world at different venues, you can sit down to drink tea and coffee, and before that, eat. Of course, the prices are too high, but that's what a tourist place is for. The whole "World Village" is strongly shifted to the east and this has its own charm!

A must-visit. The ticket price is insignificant compared to what you receive. You can visit all the markets of the countries, taste and enjoy music. There are many places where you can have a snack. And if you're really bored, then go on rides.

It's a cool place. It's the best thing for gastrotourists. Many countries are represented. There are many cuisines of the world. Prices from 1000 per dish. There are many pavilions. Lots of souvenirs. Everything is expensive. Bright and beautiful. I think this place is on par with the tower, malls and JBR, a must-visit.

I love the Global Village, I think it's a must-visit place in Dubai. Admission is inexpensive, but there are a million entertainments inside: pavilions from all over the world with goods, a variety of cafes and restaurants, a cool amusement park, stages with constant performances for adults and children, an arena for stunt shows (my favorite) and, of course, a million locations for photos. Because of this, it can be very crowded, but if it doesn't scare you, you and your children will get a lot of new positive emotions!

I didn't like it very much. All the time, you had the feeling that you were in cheap decorations that were made to cover the Cherkizovsky Market. Everything is expensive and the food and souvenirs and supposedly goods from different countries of the world, and you also have to pay for the entrance🤦 We had a free evening, went on the recommendation of the guide, spent 150 dirhams for a taxi there and back, 50 for admission and 200 for food, well, that kind of thing...

A beautiful wrapper, nonsense inside)) The first impression is very pleasant, everything is beautiful, it glows, the eyes run away. The touts invite you to try everything, they smile and impose... Cherkizon reminds me)) In fact, it is a large market with local and Chinese goods. I liked the Turkish and African parts, they are at least a little authentic and fun, the rest are not impressed. There is a small lunopark with attractions for both kids and adults, prices are different, acceptable, but you can minimally replenish the card for 150 dirhams (like) and pay for the rides with it, you will not be able to buy a ticket for 1 attraction. You can watch the show on the big stage, the children will like it, they repeat every 20-30 minutes. In the evening it gets colder in the desert, it is better to wear closed shoes and take a warm jacket with you, especially if you are traveling from November to March. I definitely wouldn't have gone there a second time.

A very interesting fair, many beautiful themed pavilions. Bright slightly cartoon decorations. It doesn't look like classic Dubai. And to eat and buy something and a photo shoot. A must-visit. Of course, the goods are Asian consumer goods, but the atmosphere of an oriental fair.

Pavilions around the world: Russia, Europe, India, China, Pakistan, KSA, UAE , etc. Like VDNKH, but each pavilion focuses on trade. And it's the same in many pavilions. There is a pond and a food court in the middle. As it got dark, people came running, the horror was overwhelming. There is a stage and there are some performances going on: dancing and full-length dolls in Arabic for children. There are also attractions nearby (there were none). There are good fireworks at 22:00.

Interesting things for girls and women: they are not allowed in short shorts and skirts, my sister was asked to buy a headscarf in order to cover her legs, at least up to her knees, so that she could enter! And here is the review itself: A great place for adults and children to relax. However, not for very young children, my son is 2 and he quickly got tired. I liked the abundance of pavilions. In Africa, I bought an open-back sundress for myself, and I bought a super cute costume for my son in the Japan pavilion. 🥰 In general, as the son grows up , you can repeat 😀

As an interesting location, it's normal to walk, explore, and see. Come closer to the opening because you can spend the whole day (and evening) quietly. But if you have doubts about which of the places in Dubai to skip and you still don't have time, you can safely skip the global village. In fact, this is a large food court and fairs from different countries, most of the assortment of which is duplicated from country to country. There is a stage where performances take place. There are interesting locations for photos, well, that's about it. In some pavilions, you won't be allowed to just walk around and watch, because there are very annoying sellers who make you have to leave quickly, well, this is probably a feature of some pavilions.
