You may have seen it all over Instagram, the Raining Street of Dubai. A quaint European-style pedestrian road, lined with red and white polka dot awnings, where (unlike the rest of the UAE) it rains all year round.
The perennially drizzly street is now open to the public, in the Cote d’Azur Monaco hotel in the World Islands’ Heart of Europe by the Kleindienst Group.
The climate-controlled kilometre-long street maintains a constant temperature of 27°C, with humidity set to 60 per cent and winds of 5kph.
A representative for the hotel confirmed to The National that it will also snow on the street in the future.
There are two ways to access the Raining Street, either as a guest at the hotel or with a day-pass which costs Dh300 ($81). Passes can be organised by calling the hotel on 800 387 673.
