A guide to Dubai and Abu Dhabi written in 1990 has shown the charm of the two emirates before they became the global tourism hotspots they are known as today.
Written by British Airways, the brochure describes Dubai as an emirate with “mountains and desert, old fishing villages and modern cities” and Abu Dhabi as a “fine modern city that retains its ancient charm”.
The guide, which was posted on the Abu Dhabi Good Old Days group on Facebook, lists business hours from Saturday to Wednesday – the old working week in the country. Residents enjoyed Thursday and Friday as the weekend.
