A short rap video celebrating the variety of Dubai's shopping malls has become an internet sensation.
The music video titled The Malls of Dubai, composed and produced by Dubai-based teenager Rohit Iyengar, has already attracted 16,000 hits on YouTube.
The video, which was uploaded onto the website last month, is likely to attract many overseas travellers planning Dubai holidays.
Iyengar originally hails from Mumbai, India, and has posted several videos online. The new video has the teenager touring the emirate to visit Mall of the Emirates, Mercato and Dubai Mall, as well as older malls like Reef Mall and Arabian Centre.
He raps: "I'm in Dubai. I'm going to the mall. There's so many to choose from, I don't know where to go. You got big ones, small ones and all of them are awesome. There's so many to choose from, I don't know where to go."
Dubai's malls are a popular hangout of tourists spending luxury holidays in the emirate.
