HIDEAWAYS Dubai Special - Die besten Hotels & Restaurants

The prosperous desert state Dubai is bursting with superlatives. The construction of Downtown Dubai, the new district surrounding Burj Khalifa, with its 828 meter the tallest building in the world, took only five years. On an area of 1729 acres, 320.000 apartments and living and working space for 750.000 people was created. “Old Town”, the beating heart of the district, was built in the style of old Arabian cities with a strikingly luxurious character. The centerpiece is the worlds biggest fountain, the 273 meter long "Dubai Fountain", situated in a huge artificial lake, which, every twenty minutes from 6 pm onwards shoots jets of up to 150 meters into the sky to musical accompaniment. “The Palm Jumeirah” is virtually a new Wonder of the World, extending Dubais coastline by almost 100 kilometers. Since construction commenced in 2001, a total of seven years was spent building the artificial palm tree, sometimes involving more than 40.000 construction workers per day. Skiing in the desert? This too is possible, Dubai truly knows no bounds. At the Dubai Mall, the biggest shopping centre in the world with 1.200 luxury brands, shopping aficionados will find everything that is hot in the world of fashion.
