Are Dubai and Jeddah the most interesting cities in the Gulf?

I've been to Manama, found it boring. I hear Doha is boring as well.

    There are many interesting places in the Gulf, it depends on what you find interesting though.

    For example:

    Tthe UAE is well known for its many attractions such as its wide variety of entertainment parks such as Wild Wadi - a water theme park , shopping centres and malls such as Mercato Mall ( Dubai), Marina Mall( Abu Dhabi) and Bin Batutta Mall (again Dubai ). This mall is like a small global world , each part representing a country by it's architectural design and products. Nature wise each place in the UAE, is is known for something. Its sand dunes ( Wadi Bashing, Fun Sand Drives & barbecues and camping), Heritage sites such as old forts and other places, mountains regions and beaches where diving is popular. I could go on and on...

    Oman: Salalah, is very popular and known as a really lush green region that would probably shock tourists from around the world. It's a beauty.

    KSA: It has some really beautiful places, it is all in its landscape and outdoor marketing.

    I find Dubai and Salalah the most interesting places in the Gulf region. However, Abu Dhabi too could be interesting to some people.

    Depends on what u consider boring....but I found San'a Yemen fascinating from a religious as well as cultural basis. There are of course alot of other places to see in Yemen. I didnt like KSA at all except of course visiting the Holy cities. I hear Muscat Oman is also a great place to visit. Be safe, Peace
