A few more positive impacts of Dubai&#8217;s tourism industry are as follows:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The socio-cultural impacts are associated with people from different cultural backgrounds, behaviours, relationships, attitudes and worldly goods.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The tourism industry has established itself as one of the powerful amplifiers for economic division. It is expected that tourism in Dubai will generate about AED 280.6 billion to the UAE&#8217;s GDP by the end of the year 2028.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dubai&#8217;s tourism industry will account for almost 296.5 thousand employment opportunities, enhancing the nation&#8217;s economy.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squareyards.ae\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Positive-Impacts-of-Tourism-in-Dubai.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-3311\" src=\"https:\/\/www.squareyards.ae\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Positive-Impacts-of-Tourism-in-Dubai.jpg\" alt=\"Impacts of Tourism in Dubai\" width=\"818\" height=\"478\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.squareyards.ae\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Positive-Impacts-of-Tourism-in-Dubai.jpg 609w, https:\/\/www.squareyards.ae\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Positive-Impacts-of-Tourism-in-Dubai-300x175.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 818px) 100vw, 818px\" \/><\/a><\/h2>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Negative_Impacts_of_Tourism_in_Dubai\"><\/span>Negative Impacts of Tourism in Dubai<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a result of Dubai&#8217;s growth in tourism, the following negative impacts have been observed:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The increase in tourism calls for more visitors on board, causing a high utilisation of resources that may cause excessive pollution.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mass eviction is one of the negative impacts of tourism. The travelling industry is no less than a pursuit of profit. It has been seen several times that the locals and small businesses have to face eviction from their residences to make major chains and resorts to attract tourists.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Excessive uses of resources are also a disadvantage of tourism in Dubai. On an estimate, 100 luxury hotels blow as much water in just a month as 100 residents do in 2 years. Tourists can deplete local water supplies and create a water scarcity for permanent residents.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Dubai_Ranking_in_Tourism\"><\/span>Dubai Ranking in Tourism<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dubai notices a massive influx of tourists throughout the year, has around 16 million international visitors, and ranks fourth for tourists. Over the past few years, Dubai has maintained its global image as a popular destination. In 2016 Dubai jumped to the top rank tourist destination as international visitors spent about USD 31.3 billion, exceeding the second-ranked capital of England, &#8220;London&#8221;, with an estimated value of USD 19.8 billion.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><b>Bottom Line<\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dubai is witnessing an ever-increasing growth in the tourism industry, and the government is making investments in the same direction to boost tourism. The diverse culture plays an integral role in acquiring tourists from all across the globe. The city of gold has a burst of year-round sunshine, ideal for touring &#8211; the Dubai skyline, scenic views, and luxurious scenic proffer an unmatched experience.
