In pictures: 2018 Dubai Tennis champ Roberto Bautista Agut visits Al Seef

2018 Dubai Duty Free Champion Roberto Bautista Agut saw another side of Dubai on Tuesday when he visited Al Seef - a bustling waterfront promenade by Meraas reflecting both the heritage and modern-day stories of the city

The ATP player had the opportunity to rediscover the heart of the city, a place where local fishermen, pearl-divers, weavers and tradesmen once came to trade.

Bautista also visited the Museum of Illusions - the attraction which takes visitors on a journey of distorted perspective and optical illusions - of which there are 80

He and his team had a great time testing out many of the exhibits before he takes on face Jan-Lennard Struff in his first-round match

Bautista is no stranger to Dubai: “It’s always good to come to Dubai, the Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships is one of the tournaments I like coming to and I have really good memories from two years ago. It’s always nice to visit the old city and have a new experience.”
