Ever imagined that there was a housing colony, themed hotels, villas, apartment buildings, beaches, marinas, restaurants, and a variety of retail outlets all on a beach? Each house in the colony facing the beach and each having its own swimming pool!!! Ah.. this appears to be dream and you won't believe me if I say this is true at some parts of the world. So today I'm gonna write about one of those many.
Palm Jumeirah, an artificial archipelago, as they call it, is located on the Jumeirah coastal area of the emirate of Dubai. The construction of this archipelago of artificial islands began in 2001. The Palm Jumeirah is in the shape of a palm tree with a main trunk and 16 fronds and a surrounding crescent island. Palm Islands are the second man-made construction on the Earth (along with the Great Wall of China) that can be seen with the naked eye from the Moon. An artificial reef has also been created near the Palm Islands to attract tourists.
The total area of the trunk and the fronds taken together is around 800 football patches.
