The Jumeirah Beach Residences, in short JBR, opened in August 2008 and along with them the 1,7-kilometre long shopping street The Walk. In 330 shops, restaurants and cafés the residents of the luxury residence complex and friends of consumption from all over the world can bring their money to the retailers. The offer is tempting. The European fashion label Zadig et Voltaire and the American department store Saks Fifth Avenue are only two famous names which have opened their stores in the noble area.

And also at night a stroll is really worth it. Not only because the street provides for a beautiful atmosphere due its location near the water. Also because there's always quite some action taking place. Big events like the Dubai Shopping Festival, the festivities on the occasion of the Emirate UAE National Day or the Dubai Jazz Festival are celebrated here on a grand scale.
