Dubai is the most populous city of the United Arab Emirates and the capital of the Emirate of Dubai, with about 3.6 million residents. Gulf Standard Time (GST, UTC+4) is fixed year-round with no daylight saving. The city pivoted in the early 2000s from an oil-dependent economy to one anchored by trade, logistics, tourism, real estate, and financial services, and oil now contributes less than 1 percent of Dubai's GDP. Dubai International Airport has been the world's busiest airport by international passenger traffic since 2014, the Burj Khalifa has been the tallest building in the world since 2010, and the city hosted World Expo 2020 (held in 2021-2022 due to the pandemic).
