The Three Wonders of Dubai — Premium Tour Locations
According to Emirates.Estate, Dubai is a city that offers the perfect blend of travel and real estate. It's a city that's committed to innovation, progress, and luxury living. As you probably already know, it has countless interesting places, and the government is still developing new tour sites to date. There is no slacking, and you can get a magnificent place to tour whether you turn right or left in Dubai. However, some places are more famous, international, and significant than others. These are:
I. The Burj Khalifa
The Burj Khalifa has broken the world record for being the tallest tower/building to have been constructed in the world. It is about eight hundred and twenty-eight meters and is home to many premium hotels (e.g., the Armani Hotel), restaurants, and servings. The Burj Khalifa has a mosque situated on the 158 floor, which is the highest mosque in the world; it has the highest swimming pool in the world as well (positioned on the 76th floor), not to mention the over 890 residential units that, are housed in the Tower, shaped like a pyramid, the Burj Khalifa has coveted worldwide solidarity and investments. One can easily spot the Burj Khalifa in the backdrops of Downtown Dubai and many other locations, from where you can easily see the pyramid-shaped tower. Whether as a background accessory or as a main visitation point, the Burj Khalifa is an absolute delight to visit, explore, and live in.
II. The Burj Al Arab
The second wonder of Dubai is the Burj Arab. Burj means tower or skyscraper in Arabic and is used to refer to tall buildings that are designed by men. The Burj is one of the tallest buildings in the world, stretching about 321 meters in height. Although not the tallest skyscraper in the world, it is taller than many and is often compared to the Paris Eiffel Tower, which is only about 307 meters in height.
Some of the interesting facts about the Burj Al Arab include:
The unique eiderdown duvets of the hotel are one of the most talked about features it has. The duvets are made of nest wools that are highly regulated yearly, making them difficult to obtain. Only about 4,409 pounds/2,000 kg of the down nests can be harvested annually. Meanwhile, it is a great material for duvets and bedding. The hotel is one of the few places in the world where you can get the duvets, and it is, as such, very expensive in the package.
Funny as it may sound, the variety of pillows available at the Burj Al Arab is one of the most talked about factors about the hotel. Rumors have it that there are 17 different types of vintage pillows available to customers at the hotel.
The edifice took a lot of infrastructural efforts to build; sitting on an artificial Island on the shores of Dubai and being equipped with florists and designs, it was developed for an extended period of about five years.
The Burj Al Arab has won many records in the past. The hotel served the most expensive cocktail in the world in 2008 and has nearly 2,000 square meters covered in 24-carat gold and the largest Swarovski crystal ceiling.
The Burj Al Arab is an absolute delight, that is not to mention the Statuario marble, exotic spas, a one-of-a-kind turtle hospital, etc.
III. The Museum of the Future, Dubai
The Museum of the Future is of international standard. Most recently, it was marked as part of the top 14 museums of the world by National Geographic Magazine. This Skyline tall museum stands about 77 meters into the sky, shaped in a circle/torus-ring having Arabic inscriptions all around it. From afar, it is an absolute beauty to behold, coupled with the fact that it has a natural feel situated at the top of a greenish mountain. The Museum is also earmarked as an innovative structure, seeing that about 1000 stainless steel panels that were used in its construction were designed using robotic technology.
Interesting facts about the Museum of the Future:
It contains the Arabic version of quotes from the Royal Supreme Leader of Dubai, Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum. The three quotes state that - although we cannot live for centuries, we can create something that would last for centuries. The second quote states that the future can be designed today, while the third hammers on the importance of innovation as the renewing factor of life.
The Museum uses sustainable solar energy from which 4000MW is derived. It is designed in a manner that allows natural light during the day, preserves energy, and makes for a natural feel.
A design breakthrough on a worldwide scale—the oval-ring-like structure has no pillars. The constructors and architects were made to find alternatives to the normal building pillars, so they designed the pillars with unique diagonal columns as opposed to vertical pillars. This is a major breakthrough, considering the capacity of the building and how large it is.
