Dubai, an oasis in the desert, has always been labeled as wealthy by people. However, few people know the facts and history of Dubai. Let's take a look at it, and maybe it will surprise you.
Thousands of years ago, Dubai relied on mass production of pearls to become one of the world's most well-known maritime trade transit stations. However, after the discovery of pearl culture technology in Japan in 1924, Dubai's pearl trade declined. Fortunately, they discovered oil in 1969, thus ending the previous predicament.
In Dubai, where the weather is hot and dry and food is scarce, what do people rely on in the old days? If you have been to Dubai, you will definitely taste the dates of Dubai. Date palm is the most primitive food that the Arab nation relied on to survive. A person can survive for more than a month with 5-6 palm dates a day.
There are currently no urban sewage treatment systems in many areas of Dubai. They are now using the large water tank to store the sewage, and then the tank truck is pulled to other places for centralized treatment.
Another fact you can't imagine is that there is no zip code, area code, and postal system. If you want to send a parcel, it is marked and indicated by drawing. It is not until January 2016 that the local government started to establish the so-called electronic address system and divided the city into 14 areas.
