This is perhaps I am in 5th time in Dubai for the kite festival. Thanks to my friend Tam n Zona. The festival was conducted on the background of Dubai OutLet  Mall on the Dubai Al- Ain Rd.

Soon after it takes that the kites brought in by conventional kite fighters which are very avidly seen in the kite festivals here took over the space whose interest only lured in kite cutting of the opponent. Says "page ledana"!!!! Skyline filled in no time with the peculiar designed kites by friends from Pakistan scrolled aloft in the clear blue skyline and eventually when the kites we were flying got cut down knowingly or unknowingly​ that was the time we remembered in India in some field we had the same experience even ended up loosing kites. We lost a kite here as well. We can't help it as the kind of feel one had towards kite fighting sense it never goes down.
