Li Na sightseeing in Dubai

Na Li (CHN) |

Chinese star Li Na took some time out from her training schedule ahead of the Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships to visit the Ottoman inspired Jumeirah Zabeel Saray.

This spectacular beachside resort is located on the west crescent of the exclusive Palm Jumeirah, and offers exhilarating views of the Arabian Gulf and Dubai’s impressive skyline. The hotel is lavishly decorated in exquisite style reminiscent of the magnificent era of the Ottoman Empire.

During her visit Li was given a sneak peek at the soon to open, and what is destined to be one of the largest and most opulent spas in the world (covering an area of 8000 square metres) and ventured into the traditional hammam. Throughout the centuries, the hammam was not only a place for bathing; it was a cultural tradition revered as a focal point for relaxing, meeting friends, associates and celebrating special events.

One special event Li will certainly be looking forward to is her start in the Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships. As one of the top seeds, the 28-year-old from China has been handed a bye in the first round and will then come up against the winner of Belgium’s Yanina Wickmayer and wild card Bojana Jovanovski of Serbia in the second.

“It is a great pleasure to have Li Na back in Dubai,” said Colm McLoughlin, Managing Director of tournament owners and organisers Dubai Duty Free. “She was in spectacular form at the Australian Open recently where she progressed all the way to the final and we are looking forward to seeing some of that form on display here at the Dubai Tennis Stadium in the coming days,” he added.

“Dubai has much to offer visitors and it is great to be able to see some of the sights before the tournament starts,” said Na. “It has been a good year so far and I am hoping that this will be a good tournament for me.”
