Palm Jumeirah
It's a big call but Palm Jumeirah are perhaps one of the country's boldest megaprojects undertaken. Often referred to as the 'eighth wonder of the world' Dubai's Palm Islands are the largest man made islands in the world and take their name from their artificially crafted palm tree shape.
These offshore islands were created from reclaimed land and have since become a popular holiday destination thanks to their uniqueness and Dubai's fast-growing tourist trade.There are three islands in total that make up Palm Islands Dubai including Palm Jumeirah, Palm Jebel Ali and Palm Deira, however the only island open to visitors is the Palm Jumeirah.
Home to the popular tourist attraction and famous luxury hotel Burj Al Arab, Palm Jumeirah also features residential property, some of which are home to the likes of celebrities including David Beckham, as well as commercial attractions such as Crescent, The Trunk and 16 Fronds.
