Home to the world’s busiest airport, Dubai is undoubtedly one of the most important (and, of course, crowded) global travel hubs, strategically located right at the axis of Africa, Asia, and Europe.

With countless international and local flights of all destinations, lengths and classes travelling through the Emirate, it’s no surprise that residents frequently decide to jet off to popular or hidden-gem locations on a passing weekend whim.

Focusing on destinations in the Caucasus and Central Asia, we’ve decided to round up the most idyllic cities reachable within a four-hour flight (or less) from Dubai.
