MSN : المسنجر UAE@UAE.NET The Palm Islands, also referred to as The Palm Dubai and The Palms, are the world's three largest man-made islands, which are being built on the coast of the emirate of Dubai, in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). The project is being handled by Al Nakheel Properties (Nakheel Corporation), which will increase Dubai's shoreline by 120km (72 miles) and create a large number of residential, leisure, and entertainment areas. The idea was first announced in May 2002 and the two manmade freehold artificial palm tree-shaped resort islands are expected to maintain Dubai's position as a premium tourist destination. The Palm Islands has also been named 'The Eighth Wonder of the World'. The two Dubai islands, The Palm Jumeirah and The Palm Jebel Ali, will be built in the shape of date palm trees and consist of a trunk; a crown with 17 fronds; and a surrounding crescent island - the back of which forms the breakwater. Collectively, the island will support more than 60 luxury hotels, 4,000 exclusive residential villas (sale), 1,000 unique water homes (sale), 5,000 shoreline apartments (sale), marinas, water theme parks, restaurants, shopping malls, sports facilities, health spas, cinemas and various dive sites. The project took four years of methodical planning and exhaustive feasibility studies in Dubai, ensuring that the islands would not disrupt the environment. The first stage of the development of The Palm Islands, includes the construction of the land foundations, which involves sand transfer and rock placement. Following this, the next stage will involve the building of infrastructure and services, as well as the 300 meter (990 feet) bridges linking the islands to the mainland. The final stage consists of the construction of homes, townhouses, and apartments. The Jumeirah Palm island is primarily a retreat and residential area for living, relaxation, and leisure. It will contain themed boutique hotels, three types of villas (Signature Villas, Garden Homes, and Town Homes), and shoreline apartments. Construction began on this island in June 2001 and is expected to be completed by late 2005, early 2006. The Palm Jebel Ali is more of an entertainment destination for both adults and children, which caters to both residents and tourists. The island will also be 50% larger than The Palm Jumeirah, and will include six marinas, a 'Sea Village', a water theme park and water homes built on stilts between the fronds and the crescent. Construction began on this island in October 2002 and is expected to be completed by the end of 2007. It was announced on the 5th of October 2004 by the crown prince of Dubai, Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, that a third man-made Palm Island will be built on reclaimed land off the coast of Dubai's Deirah beach. The Palm Deira will be the largest of the three palm islands covering 14km (8.4 miles) in length and 8.5km (5.1 miles) in width. It will consist of residential property, marinas, shopping malls, sports facilities, and clubs. The residential area will be located on the 41 fronds and will contain 8,000 two-storey villas/town houses in three distinct styles - Premier Villas, Grand Villas and Vista Town Homes. The sale of The Palm Island properties (villas and apartments) are done on freehold basis, which entitles nationals and expats the right to sell, lease or rent their property at their own discretion. The free-hold property is tax-free, secure, and has sunshine the whole year round. Real estate owners and their immediate family, can obtain renewable Dubai residence visas, which can cost Dhs. 5,000 per person. Some of the properties available for sale on the Palm Jumeirah are the Palm Jumeirah Residence, Palm Terrace, and Atlantis, The Palm

WTF! Did they say the Crowned Prince's name is "Sheik Mohammad Bin Rashid El Cartoon"? ROTFL!

At 6:18 - WHAT A JOKE! Last time I checked, a tsunami starts in deep water, and gradually work it's way towards the shorelines and inland. Because of threats like that, you couldn't pay me to live there. I wouldn't even try to invest in property there and sell it to anyone for rental.. One tsunami would destroy all that. WHAT A WASTE OF MONEY AND LABOR.

The people won't be helped if it fails. Calling it out as extravagant is understandable, but hoping it fails is spiteful.

You're a fool. Forward thinking is the reason for these endeavors. This is a nation that realizes oil will not be their sustenance forever and has turned the country into a tourist resort full of investment opportunities... This is a country making sure its citizens and economy are well taken care of in the future through Tourism. You pretend to be humanitarian? How many people have opened their hands to you and you give them nothing??? Fuckin hypocrite!

It does not matter it actually more belongs to both We have no problems getting along with iranians in Kuwait unlike Saudi Arabia and Other gulf nations for instance This is disgusting i respect Iranian Arabs than non gulf Arabs from levant etc Egypt
-
Fucking ridiculous... I hope the fucking thing sinks. These emir's and oligarchs are robbers, living a life of excess off of their countries natural resource, while the majority of people in that part of the world don't even have a pot to shit in. Good luck turning a desert into disneyland... why the fuck would I want to go there.

@nishi7cool The geniuses are the hundreds of engineers and workers that worked their ass of trying to complete a near impossible structure, the prince is just another guy who when asks for something wants it straight away, partially because of the economic conditions that lead to rapid development and also because of the greedy attitudes that the UAE leaders have.
-
@CellFawn It used to be Persian Gulf but then they changed it to Arabian Gulf , but there are some fights regarding the name .. =)
-
@belhdawa you should check your facts again, it is the Persian gulf - there is no such thing as the arab gulf.
