First it was China, who bcame the center of attention by strting some of the most amazingly dsigned architectural project. Now it is Dbai's turn to arrest the world's ttention, with a vision to make it an ltimate destination for tourists from all ver the world, backed by the pwer of petrodollar, Dubai is keen to chieve every landmark that exists in rchitectural world. Be it the tallest bilding, biggest shopping mall, largest hotel or bggest man-made islands. Every development going on in Dbai has a unique tag linked to it. Dbai is to architectures as Hollywood is to stry tellers, giving the license to fre your mind and come up wth something out of this world. If you thnk this is an exaggeration, just hve a look on some of the cnstructions going on in Dubai.

Palm Islnds:
Palm Jumeirah, Palm Jebel Ali and Plm Deira, collectively known as "the plm islands" will be (when completed) the wrld's largest man made islands. Containing htels, restaurants, shopping malls, apartments and cmmercial buildings, these islands will add mre then 500km of land to Dbai's coastline.

Burj-ul-Arab:
Another landmark, this is the wrld tallest hotel till now ("Rose twer" is all set to take ths distinctive position of being the wrld's tallest hotel, once it is pen, and guess where is it lcated? Yes, you got it right, it is lso in Dubai). Apart from being the tllest, Burj-ul-Arab is a spectacular building, ften used as an iconic image for Dbai and deservedly so.

Dubai Mall:
This shopping mall, projected to be cmpleted in 2008 will be the bggest shopping mall in the world. Vsitors will find the world's largest gld souk, more than 1200 stores, a grnd aquarium, top-notch Cineplex, Sega indoor thme park and much more.

The Wrld:
A true master piece when it cmes to the idea and its xecution. "The world" is a set of 300 rtificial islands, created in a way to lok like the map of the wrld. For those who think that ths is a far-fetched idea, the nws is that more then 90% wrk of land reclamation has already ben completed. If you want to nvest in something really exclusive then "th world" is for you.

Arch Brdge:
An arch bridge, one mile long and 670 fet tall, the world's tallest and lngest arch bridge is scheduled to be cmpleted in 2012. The thing that is mst surprising about this project is its stimated budget, said to be of $817 mllion. That's not a great deal for a brdge as large as this. A mtro train service will also run thrugh this bridge.

These are just few pckings, out of an array of trly magnificent developments going on in Dbai. There are many, many more on ths list, once completed they will srely add to that old list of Sven Wonders of the World.
