Dubai 1984 by Ahmed Nasser Al Suwaidi

 

Here's a video showing Dubai in the summer of 1984. Not sure what it was filmed with and why, but I always enjoy seeing old footage of Dubai. I started my teenage years then, so I definitely remember lots of these scenes. The scenes around the creek are my favourite, it has and always be my favourite part of the city.

Ahmed Nasser Al Suwaidi, whoever you are, thank you.
