There was a program on freeview about it a few weeks ago, fecking amazing!
They are building some islands out in the sea, from space it should look like a mini world, but flat! You can buy these, but they are merely sand, your choice if you want to build on it i think.
They have lost something in dubai, there income from whatever has declined so they are going for tourism big time now i think.
Wicked looking place

Oil is on the way out for them, so tourism is the way forward.

It's the biggest indoor ski area in the world, they have a full on chair lift - it takes 5 mins to get up the top, so you can imagine the size of the place...
