We continue to be amazed by images of Dubai’s ever expanding skyline<\/a>… The space that developed from sprawling desert to booming city dominated by skyscrapers in just two decades.<\/p>\n

And a closer look at Dubai streets show similar jaw-dropping progress.<\/p>\n

These images were shared on Twitter, snapped nearly two decades ago by a local photographer’s father. They show a rare snapshot of a residential neighbourhood in Dubai pre modernization.<\/p>\n

Some old photos my father took around Dubai. Not sure of the exact date. Sometime around the late 90’s and early 2000’s pic.twitter.com\/f84rjcfITp<\/a><\/p>\n

Following in his father’s footsteps<\/h3>\n

While his father captured beautiful untouched Dubai then, head to Instagram account @Moh????<\/a>to see Dubai through this photographer’s eyes.<\/p>\n
